Are you considering undergoing arbitration or mediation in Toronto? In the high-stakes world of technical dispute resolution, ADR (alternative dispute resolution) is an increasingly popular choice over traditional court litigation. Two of these ADR techniques are mediation and arbitration. Both offer many advantages over traditional litigation, such as faster conflict resolution, cost-effectiveness, as well as a greater degree of flexibility and confidentiality.

Whichever option you prefer, choose Marston International ADR to experience the best in arbitration and mediation in Toronto and abroad. With a background in industry-specific mediation law, Donald Marston can guide you through any conflict so that both parties can continue working together or part ways in a civil manner.

What are the differences between arbitration and mediation in Toronto?

Although the goal for both of these ADR techniques is to help two parties settle disputes, they differ in their methods. Arbitration services are held by an arbitrator, whose job is to hear the evidence from both parties, and then use his industry-specific knowledge to settle the conflict via a legally-binding decision. Mediation, on the other hand, gives both parties more control over the resolution outcome.
