Alternative​ ​Dispute​ ​Resolution    Alternative​ ​Dispute​ ​Resolution​ ​is​ ​in​ ​essence​ ​defined​ ​as​ ​any​ ​method​ ​of​ ​resolving​ ​disputes  other​ ​than​ ​litigation​ ​or​ ​going​ ​to​ ​Court.​ ​ ​Two​ ​of​ ​the​ ​most​ ​common​ ​forms​ ​of​ ​Alternative  Dispute​ ​Resolution​ ​are​ ​arbitration​ ​and​ ​mediation​ ​in​ ​personal​ ​injury​ ​lawyer​ ​asheville​.   

    Mediation​ ​can​ ​be​ ​an​ ​informal​ ​alternative​ ​to​ ​going​ ​to​ ​Court​ ​or,​ ​in​ ​North​ ​Carolina,​ ​it​ ​is​ ​an  often​ ​used​ ​method​ ​to​ ​try​ ​to​ ​reach​ ​a​ ​resolution​ ​of​ ​issues​ ​after​ ​the​ ​parties​ ​are​ ​in​ ​Court.​ ​ ​Any  case​ ​filed​ ​in​ ​North​ ​Carolina​ ​Superior​ ​Court​ ​will​ ​be​ ​ordered​ ​by​ ​the​ ​Court​ ​to​ ​go​ ​to​ ​mediation.  The​ ​parties​ ​may​ ​only​ ​dispense​ ​with​ ​mediation​ ​upon​ ​an​ ​Order​ ​of​ ​the​ ​Judge​ ​allowing​ ​them​ ​to  bypass​ ​it.​ ​ ​Mediation​ ​is​ ​often​ ​a​ ​very​ ​successful​ ​mechanism​ ​by​ ​which​ ​the​ ​parties​ ​can​ ​reach​ ​a  resolution​ ​and​ ​resolve​ ​their​ ​issues.​ ​ ​Typically,​ ​there​ ​is​ ​a​ ​mediator​ ​who​ ​is​ ​a​ ​trained  negotiator​ ​and​ ​often​ ​holds​ ​a​ ​certification​ ​from​ ​the​ ​State​ ​to​ ​conduct​ ​mediations.​ ​ ​The  parties​ ​will​ ​gather​ ​in​ ​front​ ​of​ ​the​ ​mediator​ ​and​ ​each​ ​side​ ​will​ ​give​ ​its​ ​thoughts​ ​on​ ​the​ ​case.  At​ ​that​ ​point,​ ​the​ ​parties​ ​will​ ​break​ ​out​ ​into​ ​separate​ ​rooms​ ​and​ ​the​ ​mediator​ ​will​ ​act​ ​as​ ​a  negotiator​ ​in​ ​an​ ​attempt​ ​to​ ​resolve​ ​the​ ​issues.​ ​ ​The​ ​mediator​ ​often​ ​goes​ ​back​ ​and​ ​forth  between​ ​the​ ​parties​ ​until​ ​such​ ​time​ ​as​ ​a​ ​resolution​ ​is​ ​either​ ​reached​ ​or​ ​it​ ​becomes​ ​clear​ ​the  parties​ ​will​ ​not​ ​reach​ ​an​ ​agreement​ ​and​ ​the​ ​mediation​ ​will​ ​be​ ​impressed.​ ​ ​The​ ​mediator 

cannot​ ​force​ ​the​ ​parties​ ​to​ ​settle,​ ​but​ ​if​ ​a​ ​settlement​ ​occurs​ ​the​ ​mediator​ ​will​ ​often​ ​reduce  it​ ​to​ ​writing​ ​and​ ​it​ ​will,​ ​therefore,​ ​be​ ​binding​ ​on​ ​the​ ​parties.    Another​ ​alternative​ ​dispute​ ​resolution​ ​mechanism​ ​is​ ​arbitration.​ ​ ​Arbitration​ ​is,​ ​in​ ​essence,  a​ ​simplified​ ​version​ ​of​ ​a​ ​full​ ​trial​ ​after​ ​the​ ​parties​ ​have​ ​conducted​ ​discovery.​ ​ ​During​ ​an  arbitration,​ ​the​ ​parties​ ​often​ ​engage​ ​in​ ​limited​ ​discovery​ ​and​ ​the​ ​Rules​ ​of​ ​Evidence​ ​are​ ​less  stringent.​ ​ ​The​ ​arbitration​ ​often​ ​occurs​ ​in​ ​front​ ​of​ ​a​ ​panel​ ​consisting​ ​of​ ​three​ ​arbitrators.  The​ ​process​ ​begins​ ​by​ ​each​ ​party​ ​selecting​ ​a​ ​proposed​ ​arbitrator​ ​of​ ​their​ ​choosing​ ​and  then​ ​those​ ​two​ ​arbitrators​ ​select​ ​the​ ​third​ ​arbitrator​ ​to​ ​sit​ ​on​ ​the​ ​panel.​ ​ ​Just​ ​like​ ​a​ ​trial,​ ​the  parties​ ​present​ ​their​ ​evidence​ ​and​ ​case​ ​to​ ​the​ ​arbitration​ ​panel​ ​who​ ​then​ ​renders​ ​a  decision​ ​that,​ ​depending​ ​on​ ​the​ ​circumstances,​ ​may​ ​or​ ​may​ ​not​ ​be​ ​binding​ ​on​ ​the​ ​parties.    There​ ​are​ ​other​ ​types​ ​of​ ​personal​ ​injury​ ​lawyer​ ​asheville​​ ​alternative​ ​dispute​ ​resolutions  that​ ​can​ ​be​ ​utilized​ ​by​ ​the​ ​parties​ ​and​ ​the​ ​attorneys​ ​here​ ​at​ ​Fisher​ ​Stark,​ ​P.A.​ ​are​ ​well  versed​ ​in​ ​many​ ​of​ ​them.​ ​ ​We​ ​routinely​ ​conduct​ ​mediations​ ​as​ ​well​ ​as​ ​arbitrations​ ​involving  our​ ​clients.​ ​ ​While​ ​we​ ​are​ ​trial​ ​attorneys​ ​and​ ​enjoy​ ​the​ ​Court​ ​process,​ ​often​ ​times​ ​a  mediation​ ​or​ ​other​ ​alternative​ ​dispute​ ​resolution​ ​mechanism​ ​is​ ​in​ ​everyone’s​ ​best​ ​interests  as​ ​they​ ​make​ ​an​ ​attempt​ ​to​ ​resolve​ ​their​ ​matter.​ ​ ​If​ ​you​ ​or​ ​someone​ ​you​ ​know​ ​has  questions​ ​concerning​ ​alternative​ ​dispute​ ​resolution​ ​or​ ​you​ ​find​ ​yourself​ ​facing​ ​an  arbitration​ ​or​ ​upcoming​ ​mediation,​ ​please​ ​do​ ​not​ ​hesitate​ ​to​ ​contact​ ​personal​ ​injury​ ​lawyer  asheville​​ ​the​ ​law​ ​firm​ ​of​ ​Fisher​ ​Stark,​ ​P.A.​ ​for​ ​a​ ​consultation​ ​at​ ​828-505-4300    Contact​ ​Details    Fisher​ ​Stark,​ ​P.A.  172​ ​Asheland​ ​Ave,​ ​Asheville,​ ​NC​ ​28801  (828)​ ​505-4300  Website:​​ ​https://fisherstark.com/personal-injury-lawyer-asheville-nc  Google​ ​Site:​ h ​ ttps://sites.google.com/site/personalinjuryattyasheville  Google​ ​Folder:​ h ​ ttps://goo.gl/TnnpxM  https://aboutme.google.com/101715587362897907216  https://www.youtube.com/user/FisherStarkCash    Recommended​ ​Links    personal​ ​injury​ ​lawyer​ ​asheville  accident​ ​and​ ​injury​ ​lawyers​ ​in​ ​asheville  accident​ ​and​ ​injury​ ​attorney  accident​ ​and​ ​injury​ ​lawyers  accident​ ​and​ ​personal​ ​injury​ ​lawyers  accident​ ​attorney​ ​asheville  accident​ ​attorney​ ​near​ ​me  accident​ ​attorney​ ​north​ ​carolina
