Alternative Dispute Resolution ("ADR") refers to any means of settling disputes outside of the courtroom. ADR typically includes early neutral evaluation, negotiation, conciliation, mediation, and arbitration.  As local, state and federal courts face increasing case loads and as the cost of litigation continues to increase, many are turning to alternative methods for resolving disputes.  The attorneys at Lyons Gaddis offer significant experience with all aspects of dispute resolution.  Whether your situation could be best handled by negotiation, mediation, binding arbitration or more traditional litigation, our attorneys can help bring your case to resolution.
