Alternative Dispute Resolution is a newer trend in the law that provides litigants various ways to settle disputes outside of a courtroom. Foremost among the alternatives is mediation, a process in which a neutral third party (the “mediator”) attempts to facilitate a resolution between two sides in a legal dispute. Indiana is at the cutting edge of this legal development and so is Goodin | Abernathy LLP. We recognize mediation as a speedier, less stressful, and cost effective way of resolving disputes.

Our attorneys are also experienced in representing clients through arbitration and mini-trials. The attorneys at Goodin | Abernathy LLP have participated in hundreds of mediations and arbitrations, both as advocates and neutrals. A number of our attorneys have served as mediators or are registered on the list of mediators recognized by the State of Indiana. Goodin | Abernathy LLP stands ready to represent clients in the mediation setting or assist the bar in neutrally guiding cases to a successful resolution through alternative dispute methods.
