| Arbitration, mediation, and/or settlement discussions may help resolve a dispute more quickly and efficiently than litigation, but the results often prompt litigation and appeals. When clients turn to these alternative dispute resolution techniques, we help them by recommending mediators or arbitrators, formulating strategy, and drafting briefs that persuasively lay out their position. We also routinely represent clients in appellate proceedings related to alternative dispute resolution. |
