ADR – Arbitration and Mediation

A trial is not the only means by which to resolve a legal dispute.  Sometimes, due to the value of the case, the parties involved or other factors, a courtroom is not the best place to resolve a legal conflict.  Other times, contracts or court rules or orders require the parties to attempt alternative dispute resolution (ADR) prior to trying their case in a court of law.

 

Alternative dispute resolution, including formal arbitration (binding and nonbinding), third-party mediation and counsel-mediated negotiation, can be highly effective.  Momkus McCluskey’s litigation attorneys have arbitrated many cases and some even serve on arbitration panels from time to time.

Our litigation team includes two senior attorneys, James F. McCluskey and James S. Harkness, who contributed to the Arbitration Manual for DuPage arbitrators and acted as the Chairmen of the Alternative Dispute Resolution Committee.  In your dispute, you can have the confidence that our team helped “write the book.”

We look forward to speaking with you about whether ADR is appropriate for your legal issue.  Click here to request an appointment or call (630)434-0400 to schedule one.
