Alternative Dispute Resolution

Alternative Consumer Dispute Resolution (called ADR) covers mediation, conciliation and arbitration.

Independent entities, with specialized staff, impartially, help the consumer and the company/professional to reach a friendly solution through mediation or conciliation. If such an agreement is not reached, the arbitral tribunal may also be appealed to the arbitral tribunal, through a simple and rapid and most often free procedure. The arbitral award has executive force (mandatory characteristic) and is equated to a decision of a court of first instance.

 

What are Alternative Consumer Dispute Resolution Entities?
