Alternative Dispute Resolution for Consumer Disputes

Alternative dispute resolution is the possibility that all consumers have at their disposal to resort to official entities that help them resolve or guide a conflict before opening litigation processes in the Courts. Generally, the procedure is as follows: the customer asks a third impartial party to intervene as an intermediary between themselves and the merchant who is the target of their complaint. The intermediary may suggest a solution to their complaint, impose a solution on both parties, or bring the parties together to find a solution. You may know the concept of alternative dispute resolution by another name: ‘mediation,’ ‘conciliation,’ ‘arbitration,’ or ‘competent commission within the scope of consumer disputes.’ Alternative dispute resolution is generally less expensive, less formal, and faster than judicial proceedings.
