Resolving Disputes: Theory, Practice, and Law, Fourth Edition, covers negotiation, mediation, arbitration, and hybrid approaches, preparing law students to represent clients in all types of alternative dispute resolution. The text is practical, while grounded in theory. Drawing on the authors’ decades of experience as teachers, practicing neutrals, and ADR trainers, this casebook provides vivid examples from actual cases, literature, and current media. It also offers diverse readings by leading authors, along with comprehensive video-based resources and attention to prominent developments in the field. The text integrates coverage of law, ethics, and practice, as well as interesting notes, thoughtful problems, and provocative questions.

  • Expanded arbitration section, with attention to adhesion contracts, recent cases and legislation
  • Access to arbitration games, exercises and streaming interviews with top arbitration experts
