For each method the authors discuss examples, as well as the advantages and disadvantages. If you are interested in being able to counsel clients on which method of dispute resolution is the best fit for them, this is a must read paper.

This paper was drawn from materials presented at the Civil Litigation for LSS seminar held in May 2012.
