Dispute Resolution, Litigation, Arbitration, Mediation, Negotiation, and Mitigation

Explore your options beyond traditional litigation in Puerto Vallarta and Bahía de Banderas. Negotiation, mediation, and arbitration, often referred to as ADR (Alternative Dispute Resolution), provide effective alternatives in family negotiations, neighborhood disputes, or high-stakes lawsuits. These methods often lead to fair, just, and reasonable resolutions, emphasizing settlement and compromise, long favored in the legal system. Notably, the majority of court-filed cases settle, with only five percent going to trial. ADR processes present efficient solutions for controversy, enabling quicker and cost-effective resolutions compared to traditional litigation. Many courts mandate parties to explore ADR options before proceeding to trial.
