About Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) in Tamil Nadu

Resolving disputes outside the courtroom through arbitration, mediation, and conciliation.

Arbitration under an arbitration agreement

Where a contract requires disputes to be arbitrated, the process is generally governed by that agreement and the arbitration law in force. Guidance may be sought on appointing arbitrators, framing the issues, and conducting the proceedings.

Mediation and conciliation

In mediation and conciliation a neutral facilitator helps the parties explore a negotiated settlement. These processes are voluntary in spirit and aim to preserve relationships that a contested hearing can strain.

Arbitral awards

Once arbitrators decide a dispute they issue an arbitral award. Questions often arise about whether an award can be enforced, or whether grounds exist to apply for it to be set aside within the time the law allows.

Common questions about Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR)

What is the difference between arbitration and mediation?

In arbitration, one or more arbitrators hear the dispute and decide it by issuing an award that binds the parties. In mediation, a neutral facilitator helps the parties negotiate their own settlement and does not impose a decision. Conciliation is similar to mediation in that it is settlement-focused.

Do I have to arbitrate if my contract has an arbitration clause?

An arbitration agreement generally directs how disputes under that contract are to be resolved. Whether and how it applies to a particular dispute depends on the wording of the clause and the law, so the clause itself is the natural starting point.

Can an arbitral award be challenged?

The law allows an award to be challenged only on limited grounds and within a defined time. Whether any ground applies depends entirely on the facts and the award, which is why the award and the record are reviewed carefully.

Is ADR always faster or cheaper than going to court?

ADR is often more private and flexible and can be quicker, but this is not guaranteed in every matter. The suitability of arbitration, mediation, or conciliation depends on the dispute, the agreement between the parties, and the relief sought.
