Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR)

Mediation, arbitration, and other out-of-court settlements

Most personal injury disputes are resolved outside the court room. Trial is expensive, time-consuming, and most people will do whatever they can to avoid it. To that end, alternative dispute resolution (ADR) is an option for resolving a legal dispute without it going to trial.

These types of resolutions are governed by the Texas Alternative Dispute Resolution Procedures Act. For many cases, ADR is preferable over going to trial. There are a number of different types of ADR (most common are mediation and arbitration) but they all generally follow the same procedure: the plaintiff and defendant parties meet with a neutral third party and discuss their dispute. The third party then helps the plaintiff and defendant reach a solution upon which both parties can agree.


Lawsuit Settlement Attorneys

In general, ADR is less stressful, less formal, and less complicated than trial – but this does not mean that it is easy. Specific legal tactics are necessary in order to receive a fair settlement through ADR. In some cases, you stand a better chance of receiving a favorable settlement in court rather than through ADR – and your defendant may be aware of this. You need the help of an experienced personal injury lawyer in Houston in order to determine whether or not ADR is the best course of action for your particular dispute. Our attorneys have been helping clients resolve disputes in and out of court for twenty years and we can make sure you make the right choice.
