You have options when considering how to proceed with a legal matter. In addition to traditional litigation, out-of-court alternative dispute resolution (ADR) processes such as mediation and arbitration may be an option. Alternative dispute resolution typically provides you with a less expensive and more satisfactory option for solving your legal problem than having your case heard by a judge or jury.
Jon Forehand is able to provide mediation and arbitration services for individuals who wish to settle their disputes through this cooperative process.
Mediation is a form of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) that attempts to find a solution to a legal problem that suits both parties. The mediation process involves the participation of a mediator who works to find points of agreement and helps the parties agree upon a fair result.
Arbitration is the submission of a dispute to an unbiased third person designated by the parties to resolve the controversy. The parties agree in advance to comply with the decision to be issued after a hearing at which both parties have an opportunity to be heard.
