Dispute solutions

There are several ways to resolve your business dispute, whether it involves your customers, partners, employees, or vendors. Each method has legal and cost implications. Therefore, it is best that you contact our business attorneys in Dallas for dispute resolution consultation regarding your specific situation.

Method one—Legal consultation toward direct negotiation

Many disputes can be resolved through communication and negotiation, which can help to reduce costs, delays, and legal action. Direct negotiation is often the most cost-effective means of resolving disputes.  However, direct negotiation is not always the easiest method without consultation and preparation. If you are certain that you want to maintain a thriving relationship with the other party going forward, we encourage you to consult with us before attempting a direct negotiation.

Method two—Mediation

Conflicts regarding business transactions in Dallas that cannot be resolved through direct negotiation may achieve resolution through mediation.  In mediation, our business law attorneys in Dallas function as a neutral third party, given charge by both parties to direct negotiations toward a healthy, mutually beneficial solution. As a mediator, we do not make decisions, but rather guide the parties into a workable resolution that is acceptable to all.

Method three—Arbitration

Arbitration, like mediation, is a form of alternative dispute resolution.  In arbitration, our attorneys function as the arbitrator, listening to both parties and then making a decision.  In such formal arbitration, both parties agree in advance that the decision is legally binding.  Our success as arbitrators has relied on our ability to accurately ascertain facts, identify the foundation of the dispute, and offer fair, mutually beneficial resolutions.  Contact us if your business needs help with alternative dispute resolution solutions.

Method four—Going to court and litigation

When the parties are unable to resolve disputes directly or when one or both parties cannot agree to an alternative dispute resolution method, our business litigation attorneys are fully experienced and skilled in tort law and litigation. In litigation, the case goes to court where a judge decides the appropriate actions for both parties to take.
