Alternative Dispute Resolution

Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) is a way to resolve disputes through alternative venues. Parties use alternative dispute resolution methods to resolve disputes outside of the courtroom. There are five forms of ADR adopted by the Indiana Supreme Court. 

  1. Summary Jury Trial
  2. Mini-Trial
  3. Private Judge
  4. Arbitration
  5. Mediation

Barrett McNagny's attorneys have extensive experience in Alternative Dispute Resolution formats, with an emphasis on handling arbitrations, mediations, and mini-trials. Mediation is one of the most popular forms of ADR and uses a third-party, "mediator", to facilitate negotiating a settlement or resolution to a dispute.

Our mediating attorneys have decades of experience in matters involving claims by heirs against estates, employment-related issues, disputes between companies and individuals, shareholder battles, construction project claims, and personal injury/wrongful death cases, among others.
