Making Med-Arb WorkAlan Limbury One possible reason why the hybrid ADR process of med-arb is rarely used (involving the same person acting first as mediator and then, if the dispute is not resolved, as arbitrator) may be that it attracts several important criticisms. If these criticisms can be addressed, the process offers to disputants the prospect of knowing the dispute will be resolved; giving mediation their best shot; and saving time and money. This forum considers the criticisms of med-arb and suggests how they might be overcome.
