Dispute resolution

Dispute resolution refers to the array of methods used to resolve conflicts and disagreements between parties outside of the traditional courtroom setting. This can include negotiation, mediation, arbitration, and conciliation. Each method offers a different approach: negotiation involves direct discussions between the parties to reach a mutual agreement, mediation brings in a neutral third party to facilitate a resolution, arbitration allows an impartial arbitrator to make a binding decision, and conciliation seeks to improve the relationship between disputing parties through a conciliator's guidance.
