Misuse of Mediation process-steps to be taken
More and more companies are inserting alternative dispute resolution (ADR) clauses in their contracts with customers and vendors, and even in agreements with their own employees. ADR processes such as mediation and arbitration can be beneficial for all concerned if they help avoid the cost, delay, and uncertainty of going to court. Mediation, in particular, may offer creative solutions, protection of confidentiality, and preservation of important relationships.
Some businesses, however, have tried to use ADR clauses to increase their bargaining power in the event of a future dispute. Such attempts can run afoul of the law.
