Alternative Dispute Resolution
Whether it is Arbitration or Mediation, Alternative Dispute Resolution (“ADR”) has become a prevalent part of today’s legal landscape. Regardless of the type and magnitude of the dispute, knowledge and understanding of ADR processes is vital to a successful resolution.
Due to the increased utilization of these mechanisms, we have made it a priority to receive the training and experience necessary to effectively handle both mediation and arbitration, as either an attorney advocate or the mediator/arbitrator.
Our experience and approach are highlighted by the following:
Multiple attorneys with the training and experience to serve as a “Qualified Mediator” in an array of civil conflicts.
A direct and honest approach to mediation with the experience and understanding of litigation risks and case valuation to guide the parties to a successful resolution.
Representation of hundreds of clients in mediation and arbitration matters.
Experience handling numerous domestic and international arbitrations administered through FINRA, AAA, ICSID, LCIA, the ICC, and UNCITRAL.
Extensive experience with statement of claim and witness statement preparation in domestic and international arbitrations.
Successful prosecution and/or defense of arbitral claims in the construction, securities, real property, oil and gas, contract, investment banking, and quasi-contractual tort areas.
Contacts with a wide-range of private-party arbitrators through the IBA and the ABA.
Experience in drafting and construing compulsory mediation and arbitration provisions in commercial contracts.
