With Connecticut's court system strained with heavy caseloads, some businesses have found that alternative dispute resolution offers a faster path forward.
As businesses turn to mediation and arbitration for efficiency, privacy, specialized expertise and cost savings, law firms are launching pre-litigation mediation centers to meet demand.
The median resolution time for ADR is 11.6 months compared to 31.6 months in traditional civil court, according to the American Arbitration Association, which handled more than 13,425 business-to-business disputes worth over $21 billion in 2024.
