What Is Alternative Dispute Resolution in Florida?

When families face divorce or property division in Orlando, the traditional court system can be time-consuming, costly, and emotionally draining. Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) provides families with a more efficient path to resolution. ADR includes methods such as non-binding arbitration, voluntary trial resolution, and mediation, all designed to keep families out of drawn-out courtroom battles.

Under Florida Statutes Chapter 682 (The Florida Arbitration Code), arbitration is recognized as a structured, lawful process to resolve disputes privately and efficiently. Families can benefit from a less adversarial, more confidential approach that keeps sensitive matters out of the public record.

For more details, see Arbitrator Qualifications and the Arbitrators Almanac.

How ADR and Non-Binding Arbitration Benefit Families

Choosing ADR can save families significant time and money compared to traditional litigation. Some of the main benefits include:

  • Faster resolution compared to waiting months or years for a court date.
  • Lower costs with fewer court appearances and legal fees.
  • Privacy and confidentiality in sensitive family law matters.
  • Tailored solutions that may better fit a family’s unique circumstances.

In non-binding arbitration, both parties present their case to an arbitrator, who issues a decision that can serve as guidance or a framework for settlement. This is especially valuable in family law, where flexibility and cooperation often lead to healthier long-term outcomes.
