Searching for an alternative dispute resolution lawyer?

Alternative dispute resolution can save significant time and money for parties by avoiding litigation and backlogged court schedules.
Alternative dispute resolution includes mediation, arbitration, and other specialized types of out of court process specific to particular legal issues.
ADR is discussed in the context of family law and seeking settlements outside of court based rulings for child custody, child support, and property division.
An ADR lawyer can help decide whether an alternative dispute resolution process makes sense for your case while still seeking to protect your legal interests.
