Arbitration, mediation and other alternative dispute resolution (ADR) options are becoming increasingly popular. Through these ADR methods, both parties are able to resolve their disputes in a less-costly and more time-efficient manner. At The Liccardo Law Firm, LLP, we offer experienced mediation and arbitration support to plaintiffs involved in personal injury disputes.
What Is Arbitration?
Arbitration is a binding form of dispute resolution where both parties present their case and an assigned arbitrator makes a final determination. If you are entering into arbitration, it is important to consult with an experienced attorney who will protect your rights and long-term interests. We will collect relevant evidence, articulate your interests, and work to maximize your recovery during the arbitration and settlement process.
Benefits to Arbitration
Many arbitrations are mandated by a legal contract. You can also enter arbitration based on an agreement between the parties after an accident or injury. Arbitration is a cheaper and easier way to resolve any dispute because you do not have the time and expense of trial. Evidence is presented in a more economic manner (piecemeal or through reports). Arbitration is also quicker: A case can be resolved in three to four days instead of weeks or months for a personal injury trial. Most arbitrations are for smaller personal injury cases (less than $100,000), but not all.

What Is Mediation?
Mediation is a private, informal and voluntary submission of a dispute. In it, the parties are assisted by a neutral third party as they work toward a voluntary recovery. Mediation allows both parties and their attorneys to fully explain to the mediator their position, needs, abilities and problems. Attorney Sal Liccardo can act as an attorney representing a party in mediation, or as a neutral third party mediator. Mediation is non-binding.
