We make mediations and arbitrations easier

Overview

Trusted, professional services

Legal disputes are hard on everyone involved. The Resolution Network eases the burden by making it easier to access highly skilled mediators and arbitrators, and by managing all of the administrative tasks throughout the process. 

Our professional, streamlined services cover all of the details relating to scheduling, handling agreements, exchanging pleadings and documents and sending invoices. This removes the burden from counsel and the mediators or arbitrators, reducing delays and allowing everyone to focus on reaching a resolution.

    Finding Mediators & Arbitrators

    We provide a network of active or retired senior counsel to help parties achieve early and acceptable outcomes, without going through the entire litigation process.

    The Resolution Network makes it easier to access skilled, experienced mediators and arbitrators, typically available at shorter notice.

    We also help the mediators, arbitrators and counsel, to manage the scheduling of the mediations and arbitrations, the signing of the mediation or arbitration agreement, and the exchange of documents, pleadings and mediation briefs to be used by the mediator or arbitrator. 

    We can further help facilitate the payment of the mediation fees by the parties, making the overall administration of the mediation or arbitration more streamlined and convenient.

    Scheduling Mediations & Arbitrations

    Our user-friendly booking system is designed to help counsel quickly find and book the ideal mediator or arbitrator for their specific area of practice.

    No more wasting time on back-and-forth phone calls and emails to find the right mediator or arbitrator. Our intuitive calendar view makes choosing and scheduling a mediator or arbitrator quick and straightforward.

    With live updates on mediator and arbitrator availability, our system ensures a seamless booking process for counsel and legal assistants. Additionally, we easily  connect counsel with our partner Veritext to book their facilities for their mediation or arbitration at a preferred rate, streamlining the entire process and saving valuable time and money.

    Signing The Mediation Agreement

    By handling the preparation and signature of the mediation agreement, we facilitate the process for everyone involved.

    Some of The Resolution Network’s mediators and arbitrators use their own form of mediation or arbitration agreement. We also offer a standard form agreement with terms under which the mediations or arbitrations are conducted.

    Once a mediation or arbitration is scheduled, we promptly circulate the agreement to counsel and their clients for signatures, and we handle the delivery of the signed documents to the mediator or arbitrator.

    Exchanging Pleadings & Documents

    We use the NetDocs document management system for the exchange of all pleadings, documents and mediation briefs between and among counsel and the mediator or arbitrator.

    All file exchange is done in a strictly confidential manner through the secure Netdocs system operated by The Resolution Network. This makes the process easier and more convenient for everyone.

    Delivering Mediators & Arbitrators’ Invoices

    If requested, we send the mediators’ or arbitrators’ invoice to counsel. 

    The Resolution Network does not get involved in the actual relationship between mediators, arbitrators, and counsel regarding the payment of fees. The responsibility for paying the mediators’ and arbitrators’ fees always remains with counsel. To streamline the process, we can handle the administrative work of sending the invoice.
