A: Please click
here for a brief
description of mediation, arbitration, and other
types of Alternative Dispute Resolution.
A: Participation in mediation often
completely settles and resolves your claim or
dispute. Even when it does not, mediation will
help you to evaluate your claim or defense,
identify any particular strengths or glaring
weaknesses, and more effectively communicate your
position or objective.
A: You and the other
parties to the dispute will select the member of
our team with the background, qualifications,
and temperament best suited to resolving your
case. If desired, Aspen Dispute Resolution will
assist in selecting and assigning the best
available neutral based on the nature of your
dispute, scheduling considerations, costs, and
other factors.
A: The Aspen Dispute Resolution
offices in Aspen, Colorado, have multiple
conference rooms and are available for any of our
services. In addition, especially for larger
multi-party disputes, we utilize the seminar or
conference rooms of several Aspen institutions,
hotels, and lodges, including The Aspen Institute,
The Given Institute, or the Aspen Center for
Physics.
We also emphasize that we are available to travel
anywhere our services are required and to utilize
suitable facilities, whether made available by the
parties or secured for the particular sessions.
A: One
of the advantages of Alternative Dispute
Resolution is that the parties schedule all
sessions with a neutral who gives
the matter his or her undivided attention. The
process can begin immediately and proceed
expeditiously.
A: Unless
alternative fee sharing arrangements are agreed to
by all parties, the parties share all fees and
costs equally. When desired, this issue as well
as other “ground rules” may themselves be mediated
in an initial orientation session.
A: One
of the many advantages of Alternative Dispute
Resolution is the time
and cost saving, even when each party is
separately represented by counsel. In many cases,
disputes may be resolved with enforceable
settlements, yet without attorneys. Since each
case is unique, the best rule of thumb is that
attorneys may participate when and as desired by
each party.
A: You
can discuss the advantages of mediation,
arbitration or other Alternative Dispute
Resolution services with the other party to the
dispute and then contact us for an initial
orientation session, or you can contact us first
and we will take the initiative to “convene” an orientation session with all parties.
