Arbitration

When a business has to deal with a commercial dispute, alternative dispute resolution (ADR) can be a cost-effective, efficient solution. ADR includes arbitration, mediation, and other methods of resolving disputes out of court. Some situations may be better suited for ADR than others, but sometimes a contract at the heart of the dispute will dictate how the matter must be resolved.

At Dunlap Bennett & Ludwig, our goal is to help our clients avoid the risks and costs of litigation as well as the amount of time, energy, and exposure that comes with it. Our arbitration lawyers evaluate whether ADR is right for businesses and guide them through the process toward a favorable result.
