Arbitration Attorney in Mansfield, Massachusetts

I. MEDIATION & ARBITRATION SERVICES IN MASSACHUSETTS

Litigation in a traditional court system is not the only way to resolve a legal dispute. The Law Office of Adrian LeCesne can assist you with alternative dispute resolution by way of mediation or arbitration, which can often save you time and money, or avoid unwanted publicity.

Mediation

Mediation is a voluntary dispute resolution method that’s a bit like counseling for the parties. Instead of trading letters through attorneys, you have the opportunity to sit down together with a trained professional for what is essentially an organized settlement conference.

Mediation is non-binding, but gives you a chance to present your story in detail and hear what the other side has to say. In commercial conflicts or situations where money is at the heart of the issue, this is sometimes the simplest and most cost-effective approach.

Arbitration

Unlike Mediation, Arbitration is a binding form of dispute resolution. Think of it like a “private court” where the parties get to pick the judge and create the schedule on their own terms. If you’re entering into a business relationship with a new party, review your contracts carefully to see whether disputes are subject to mandatory arbitration, as this can divert your case from the Courts entirely and prevent a jury trial, which depending on your position, may be a benefit or a burden.

If you have a dispute and are considering going to court but want to avoid the costs of a full trial, or the delay of the formal justice system, investigate mediation.
