Scherini Lawyers
Alternative Dispute Resolution Lawyers Melbourne
Helping You Resolve Disputes Without Court
Not every dispute needs to end up in court. At Scherini Lawyers, we help clients resolve matters swiftly and strategically using alternative dispute resolution (ADR) methods such as arbitration, mediation, expert determination, neutral evaluation and referee processes.
Whether your dispute is commercial, contractual or construction-related, ADR can offer a faster, more cost-effective and confidential alternative to traditional litigation. These methods also help preserve relationships by avoiding the adversarial nature of court proceedings.
What Is Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR)?
ADR refers to structured methods of resolving disputes without going to court. Some are binding, like arbitration and expert determinations, while others are advisory or collaborative, like mediation and neutral evaluations.
Each method serves a different purpose and our role is to help you choose the most effective one for your circumstances, then guide you through the process from start to finish.
