Methods for Contract Dispute Resolution
Attorney Wade McClure’s track record when it comes to resolving contract disputes involves the application and use of any available method to achieve his clients’ stated objective. Some of the most common methods used in these cases are:
Mediation
With mediation, both parties agree to meet with an objective third party to help direct them towards a resolution of the problem that satisfies them both. Each party is present with their dispute resolution attorney and, if an agreement is reached, this forms a new contract between the parties. The strength of this contract lies in the fact that it can be enforced by a court of law should a party breach it is generally faster and less formal than litigation.
Mediation is less costly than traditional litigation and gives each party the opportunity to have direct input in the resolution of the dispute. In some cases, this fact alone is enough to preserve the relationship between the parties. Mediation is confidential and can take place virtually during these difficult times.
Arbitration
Your contract may contain an arbitration clause, which will require the parties to use a more private dispute resolution process instead of going to court. This method only works when both parties agree to participate and no party can unilaterally withdraw. Arbitration is confidential and the decision by the arbitrator is final and enforceable.
