Tired of One-Size-Fits-All ADR?
When the stakes are high, the last thing you want is an arbitrator or mediator who lacks subject-matter expertise, a process that drags on with unclear deadlines, or a strike list filled with potential panelists — and no guidance to choose the right one. ADR shouldn’t feel generic, slow, or out of your control.
Searching for JAMS? You deserve better.
