Alternative Dispute Resolution Act

The Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) Act encourages parties in disputes to resolve their issues without going to court. It promotes methods like mediation and arbitration, where a neutral third party helps facilitate a solution. The goal is to make the resolution process faster, cheaper, and more flexible than traditional litigation. The ADR Act supports these practices in federal agencies, emphasizing their effectiveness in settling conflicts amicably while reducing the burden on the court system. Overall, it provides an avenue for individuals and organizations to reach agreements more efficiently.
