Alternative Dispute Resolution
KSB Law believes in the foundation of helping businesses and individuals explore practical solutions to workplace conflicts as an alternative to litigation. The use of effective dispute resolution techniques — guided by a skilled arbitrator or mediator — can preserve business relationships, protect interests, and minimize protracted disputes.
KSB Law offers a broad range of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) services. Our attorneys serve as impartial neutrals on panels with the American Arbitration Association in arbitrations and mediations to help parties resolve disputes. We also help our clients resolve their conflicts through alternative measures to litigation. Our ADR services include the areas of:

KSB Law offers clients and parties a positive and collaborative approach fostered over years of experience handling employment matters for both plaintiffs (employees) and defendants (employers).
