Why Choose ADR?

Clients frequently ask me why they should go to mediation or other form of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) instead of having the judge decide their case. Alternative Dispute Resolution can offer a range of benefits for clients. One of the main advantages of ADR is cost savings. Traditional litigation can be expensive, with court fees, attorney fees, and other costs adding up quickly. In contrast, ADR services are generally less costly, as they often involve less paperwork, fewer legal fees, and faster resolution times. This is particularly beneficial for individuals or businesses with limited financial resources.

Another key advantage of ADR is flexibility. In traditional litigation, parties have little control over the outcome, as it is ultimately determined by a judge (or jury). In ADR, however, parties have more control over the outcome and can work collaboratively to come up with a solution that works for everyone involved. This can be particularly beneficial in family law cases, where a more collaborative approach can help reduce stress and conflict for everyone involved. It is difficult to educate a judge about your family and children in the limited time available in court. No one will ever know your children better than you do.

In traditional litigation, parties are subject to strict court procedures and evidentiary rules, which may not be ideal for their particular situation. ADR, on the other hand, allows parties to choose a process that is best suited to their needs. For example, parties can choose to mediate their dispute or use an arbitrator to make a binding decision.

ADR services can also be more conducive to creative and innovative solutions. In traditional litigation, the outcome is often limited to what the law allows. ADR, however, allows parties to think outside the box and come up with solutions that may not be possible in a court of law. This can be particularly beneficial in business disputes, where parties may be able to come up with creative solutions that benefit both parties.

Lastly, ADR services can be less stressful and emotional than traditional litigation. Court proceedings can be intimidating and emotionally taxing, particularly in family law cases. ADR, on the other hand, allows parties to work through their dispute in a more relaxed and informal setting. This can help reduce stress and anxiety for all parties involved, and allow for a more positive outcome.

In conclusion, ADR services offer numerous advantages over traditional litigation, including cost savings, flexibility, faster resolution times, confidentiality, tailored solutions, creativity, and reduced stress. Lallemont Law provides several ADR services, including mediation, parenting time evaluations, social early neutral evaluations, and financial early neutral evaluations.
