Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR)

Litigation isn’t always the best or most cost-effective path. We regularly guide clients through mediation, negotiation and arbitration, offering alternatives that can save time, money and stress while still achieving a favourable outcome. ADR allows parties to maintain greater control over the process, preserve relationships, and often reach faster outcomes.

ADR encompasses a range of methods, including mediation, conciliation, negotiation, and arbitration. Many courts and tribunals in Victoria including the Supreme Court, County Court, and VCAT actively encourage or require parties to engage in ADR before proceeding to trial.
