Abstract:

The most significant new trend affecting the legal profession is the use of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) in place of litigation. While certain forms of ADR, such as arbitration, have been around for decades, the new emphasis on ADR in the eighties is a child of necessity brought about by the crushing case load in both state and federal court systems. This paper presents a review of emerging ADR procedures now in common usage. It concludes with comments on the protection of confidentiality of statements made during ADR.
