Alternative Dispute Resolution or ADR involves a variety of techniques and approaches to achieve consensual resolution of disputes.Added; Mediation of the dispute(s) would be one example.
Alternative Dispute Resolution (commonly referred to as "ADR") is any means of settling a legal dispute without actually going to court. Mediation is a very common form of ADR, as is Arbitration (binding or not). There are other forms as well, and many courts require that some form of ADR is attempted before the case goes to trial. ADR is especially helpful for simple cases that can easily be decided without a judge and jury. Most mediators/arbitrators (persons acting as the judge and jury in mediation or arbitration, respectively) are themselves retired attorneys or judges. ADR involves many of the same things you would do in court (e.g., filing a brief of your argument), but without the formality and cost.
Negotiation can involve just the parties to a dispute without their attorneys, often in an attempt to find a resolution informally and directly. However, in more complex cases or when legal expertise is needed, attorneys may be involved in the negotiation process to provide guidance and ensure that the parties' rights are protected.
