Alternative Dispute Resolution |
Kiernan Trebach has been at the forefront of a growing trend toward cost-effective resolution of disputes on an administrative basis and without recourse to trial.
Members of the Firm have not only provided services to the local and federal courts in this growing area of the law, but also serve as instructors for and evaluators of other mediators and judges in the unique skills required for successful resolution of disputes by alternate means. Our ADR experience includes resolution of tort cases, commercial disputes, real estate, medical and professional malpractice, and many other practice areas. We have served as mediators, arbitrators and neutral case evaluators in disputes prior to the filing of a lawsuit, at the trial court level as well as for cases pending at the appellate level. Members of our firm have been privately retained to provide ADR services and have also provided pro bono services to the local and federal courts.

Enforcement of Contractual Rights to Arbitration
Increasingly, commercial contracts require the parties to agree to resolve any disputes by some form of alternate dispute resolution. Our Firm has significant experience in petitioning the federal and local courts on behalf of manufacturers, commercial shippers and others to enforce our clients' rights to the cost-savings and speed that these provisions offer.
