What is ‘alternate dispute resolution’?

Alternate dispute resolution, or "ADR" involves the use of mediation or arbitration, instead of – or in addition to -- the courts, to resolve a controversy. Those who favor ADR claim that the process is often faster, less traumatic, and less expensive than traditional litigation, and can produce a better or fairer result.
