Originally from Alternatives to the High Cost of Litigation

PAGE PREVIEW

This is the second part of a two-part article summarizing the results of a study about why and how some businesses use “planned early dispute resolution” systems.

Last month’s article identified elements of the “PEDR” systems and processes. See John Lande and Peter W. Benner, “How Businesses Use Planned Early Dispute Resolution,” 34 Alternatives 49 (April 2016). This month’s Part 2 offers recommendations for businesses—and especially their inside counsel—for developing robust and sustainable PEDR systems in their companies. 

The study will be published in 13 Univ. of St. Thomas Law Journal (2017) (for more information, see http://ir.stthomas.edu/ustlj/), and is now available at bit.ly/1Qu9H0o.
