Welcome to the Dispute Resolution Section
Section status recognizes the critical importance of negotiation,
collaboration, mediation, neutral evaluation, arbitration and new and hybrid
forms of dispute resolution in all areas of legal practice. The Section is a
forum for improving these processes and the understanding of dispute resolution
alternatives, for enhancing the proficiency of practitioners and neutrals and
increasing the knowledge and availability of party-selected solutions.
The Section will serve this mission by:
- Creating committees to explore and research developments in ethics,
substantive law, and legislative initiatives relating to our shared interests
- Sponsoring publication of analysis and opinion on dispute resolution
processes
- Providing continuing legal education and training to practitioners and
neutrals
- Promoting relevant legislation
- Providing commentary on ethical issues affecting dispute resolution
- Providing a venue for practitioners, law school faculty and students, and
dispute resolution providers to network, exchange ideas, and to interact with
other members of the Bar and to the public on issues relating to dispute
resolution.
