Settle Out of Court

Going to court is not always the best way to solve a legal dispute because it can be costly, time-consuming and very stressful. Other ways to solve legal problems are called "alternative dispute resolution" (ADR). Common types of ADR include mediation, arbitration, and neutral evaluation.
