Our WebPage
House Neutrals - Our "House Neutrals" are Hearing Officers with whom we have established marketing relationships based on our "Model of Service" which allows them to participate as neutral Hearing Officers without having to directly market their services.
All Rosters - This section contains our current personal injury and commercial rosters. We are in the process of updating the PI rosters and adding many new members to the commericial section.
Simply Commercial - In light of the high cost of Commercial Litigation, particularly where the amount in dispute is a high percentage of total legal costs, the benefits of submitting "smaller" commercial cases to our program is outlined here. Qualifying cases range from contractor disputes to cases worth upwards of $250,000.00 where cost savings criteria are met. We are currently speaking to potential commercial arbitrators and mediators for our rosters.
HealthCare - Our latest services are outlined here in detail. The program not only stresses mediation and arbitration, but also the benefit of consulting services during contract negotiations between entities. John Perlstein is the house neutral who conceptualized this program and with whom we have worked.
Employment Disputes - At the moment we are working with one of our house neutrals, Bill Logue, on the formation of an efficient Employment dispute resolution roster. Among many other ADR related services (See below), Bill has a reputation as a skilled employment dispute mediator, public policy expert and mediation trainer.
Other ADR Services - See House Neutral bios and/or contact Robert Yolles.
Articles - While currently incomplete, this system, once completed, will allow the addition of articles regarding all aspects and uses of ADR in the legal, business and government communities along with articles providing insight into specific areas.
Submit a Case - All cases can be submitted to us directly online using this submission format.
Fee Schedule - Our current fee schedule. The goal is to keep costs as low as possible. It should be noted that fees are driven mostly by the hourly fees of the mediators and arbitrators.
Procedural Rules - Our procedural rules are enforced unless the parties choose to adopt specific additions or exceptions to the rules or, in the alternative, a different set of procedural rules altogether.

As noted above, we are assembling rosters of arbitrators. We are always looking for additions to all of our rosters.
