"Alternative Dispute Resolution:  Real Dialogue. Real Answers." was developed by the Indiana Supreme Court to give people involved in family law cases an overview of the options available for resolving their cases outside of court.   Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) is a general term that includes mediation, facilitation, and other strategies for reaching an agreement without going to trial.   Asking a court to settle differences regarding matters such as custody, parenting time, and property division can be stressful, time consuming, and expensive.  Regardless of the result, the ongoing conflict can negatively affect both you and your children.  ADR provides you with an opportunity to play a more active role in resolving your family law issues in a more informal setting.  This video contains information about the various types of ADR, how ADR works, and the benefits of ADR.
