Alternative Dispute Resolution: The Advocate's Perspective: Cases and Materials

View or download the free 2014 Online Supplement for this product. This book is designed for use in a one-semester course that focuses on the group of alternative dispute resolution procedures. This new edition features new and expanded treatment of mediation. The main highlights of this new edition include: Expanded treatment of mediation confidentiality, including recent cases and hypotheticals that make this important area more teachable; Expanded treatment of the enforcement of agreements to mediate, including newer cases that articulate the difficult issues raised by enforcement questions; New material and cases on court-annexed mediation, including cases dealing with confidentiality rules in court-connected mediation and materials that critique the styles used by judges and other professionals who mediate pending cases; and Inclusion of new arbitration material including cases dealing with unconscionability and class action arbitration. As was true with prior editions of the book, the authors of Alternative Dispute Resolution use the case method to present arbitration and mediation materials. Negotiation material is presented in a textual style that necessarily eschews cases. The new Teacher's Manual includes numerous problems for use in negotiation and mediation simulations. The authors present a wide variety of problems to give the book's users choices as to different types of disputes. This book also is available in a three-hole punched, alternative loose-leaf version printed on 8.5 x 11 inch paper with wider margins and with the same pagination as the hardbound book. The eBook version of this title features links to Lexis Advance for further legal research options.
