Alternate Dispute Resolution System

Alternate Dispute Resolution (ADR) provides faster, cost-effective, and less adversarial methods of resolving disputes outside traditional courts. This revision series—through concise videos, PDFs, and practical notes—explains the core mechanisms of arbitration, mediation, conciliation, negotiation, and lok adalats, along with their legal frameworks and procedural steps.

With a real practice-focused approach, these notes help junior advocates understand how arbitration agreements are drafted, how mediations are conducted, how settlements are recorded, how arbitral awards are challenged or enforced, and how disputes are resolved in Lok Adalats and permanent ADR centres. The series also covers the Arbitration & Conciliation Act, roles of mediators, enforceability of settlement agreements, and practical courtroom–ADR coordination.

Perfect for LLB students, interns, and young lawyers, this series makes ADR concepts simple, practical, and directly useful for modern legal practice where dispute resolution increasingly shifts beyond courtrooms.
