Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR)

Court proceedings are not always the most suitable way to resolve a dispute. For many commercial and civil matters, alternative dispute resolution can offer a more private, efficient, and cost-effective route.

Our lawyers at Jal N. Karbhari, Solicitors & Notary help clients resolve disputes through mediation, arbitration, and negotiation. Our team can advise on the most appropriate approach for your situation and represent you throughout the process.

Corporations & Multinationals

Resolving cross-border commercial disputes, supply chain conflicts, and joint venture deadlocks.

SMEs & Family Businesses

Navigating partnership breakdowns, shareholder disputes, and contractual disagreements without destroying the business.

Individuals & Executives

Resolving employment disputes, professional negligence claims, and personal injury settlements.

In-House Counsel & Compliance Teams

Outsourcing high-stakes dispute resolution to experienced external counsel with deep ADR expertise.

Government & Statutory Bodies

Assisting with regulatory disputes and public-private partnership conflicts.

Mediation

Mediation is a voluntary, confidential process in which a neutral mediator helps the parties reach an agreement, with the parties retaining control over the outcome. Our team prepares you for mediation, attends sessions with you, and drafts the settlement agreement. We handle both court-annexed and commercial mediation.

Arbitration

Arbitration is a private process in which a tribunal makes a binding decision that is enforceable in many jurisdictions. Our team represents clients in domestic arbitration under the Arbitration Ordinance and in international arbitration administered by bodies such as the HKIAC, ICC, SIAC, and LCIA, handling each stage from the notice of arbitration through to the final hearing.

Negotiation and settlement

Many disputes can be resolved through direct negotiation. Our team advises on negotiation strategy, without prejudice correspondence, and structured settlement proposals, keeping the commercial position in mind throughout.

Enforcement and post-settlement matters

We assist with enforcing arbitral awards and settlement agreements, resisting applications to set aside awards, and monitoring compliance with agreed terms.
