Mediation & Arbitration

Settlement in an Alternative Forum

While you want to do everything you can to protect your rights in court, litigation may not always be the best solution. Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) is the process of resolving legal conflicts without going to trial. Forms of alternative dispute resolution, such as mediation and binding and non-binding arbitration are increasingly used to avoid costly, time-consuming and uncertain litigation. The lawyers at Montgomery Barnett, have extensive experience in determining if and when a form of ADR is in the best interest of our clients and meets their needs better than litigation. We are also trained to act as mediators and arbitrators in a variety of cases.

Resolving Disputes in an Alternative Forum

The processes of mediation and arbitration afford a forum for parties and their attorneys to explore possibilities with the aid of a professional trained in the art and skill of settling disputes. Whether acting as your attorney in a mediation or arbitration or as the trained mediator and arbitrator, we are ready to help you resolve your legal and business disputes, including:

As neutrals for the American Arbitrators Association, FINRA (f/k/a National Association of Securities Dealers and New York Stock Exchange), and National Arbitration Forum, our lawyers have provided mediation and arbitration services for small businesses and Fortune 500 companies. With extensive experience in the resolution of routine and complex litigation, we can help you find a solution.
