Dispute Resolution

a) Alternative Dispute Resolution

Resolving disputes is a resource-intensive and lengthy process, which often comes at considerable expense to the participants. With the inefficiencies caused by backlog of cases in courts, there is increasing emphasis on parties attempting alternative dispute resolution before trial. The Constitution and the Civil Procedure Act now enjoin courts to screen all cases before trial and to promote ADR as and when appropriate. The role of alternative dispute resolution has thus become a crucial aspect of modern litigation.

Arbitration and Mediation plays a key part in that process, and offers a quicker and more cost-effective alternative to a contested trial.
