How ADR Reviews work

Disputes can hold back business development, harm commercial relationships and be extremely costly and time consuming to resolve. These factors are all damaging to the interests of the company, its employees and its shareholders.

ADR Reviews are designed to review disputes and differences which companies may have and to identify those in which mediation or other forms of ADR may be appropriate. The process also looks at potential time and cost savings which may be available in each case. It can be used for all or just specified disputes and is strictly confidential.

Safeguards

We only require outline information of disputes. This can be provided to us online via our mediate now form. The information required relates only to the nature of the dispute, some of the dynamics involved and any projected legal costs. We do not need to know the identity of the other parties or of specific property or assets involved. The information provided is subject to our strict rules on confidentiality and will not later be disclosed to any third party or to our independent panel mediators.

Board Presentations on the benefits of mediation

As well as carrying out a Review we can make a short presentation to CEOs, Finance Directors and other senior executives in conjunction with a company's in-house lawyers. The objective is to explain the concept and benefits of mediation and to introduce the ADR Review arrangement. This optional presentation is free of charge.

Our Report

We will prepare a report listing those matters which we believe, on the information supplied, may or may not be suitable for mediation or some other form of ADR. For those cases which we feel are suitable for referral, we will advise on the:

A. Recommended form of ADR
B. Projected time scale for the process
C. Estimated potential cost savings which may be available

Dispute Systems Design - In addition to our review process, we can design and implement policies and procedures to ensure that disputes are resolved at the earliest possible time within organisations and to minimise the costs of the dispute.

At Mutual Mediations we also offer in-house dispute resolution training for all levels of employees.
