OTHER CONSIDERATIONS -- ADR (Alternative Dispute Resolution) may not be effective if it takes place before the parties have sufficient information to resolve the dispute. The neutral party may charge a fee, and, if the dispute is not resolved through ADR, the parties may then have to face the usual and traditional costs, such as attorney's fees and expert fees. Lawsuits must be brought within the Statutes of Limitations. Parties must be careful not to let a Statute of Limitation run while a dispute is in an ADR process.
