ADR Options

There is a spectrum of dispute resolution processes, ranging from informal discussion to formal adjudication.  The concept behind the development of alternative dispute resolution, or "ADR," is that the traditional adjudicatory model of dispute resolution is not always the best approach.  Rather, the concept has developed that "the forum should fit the fuss," and not vice versa.
