Alternative Dispute Resolution Law & Practice by Adnan Yaakob, Ashgar Ali Ali Mohamed, Arun Kasi, Mohammad Naqib Ishan Jan & Muhamad Hassan Ahmad2020

Alternative Dispute Resolution: Law and Practice is structured into 44 chapters, each exploring the wide range of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) methods such as negotiation, mediation, conciliation, ombudsman services, arbitration, and court adjudication. These mechanisms complement the traditional court system and are widely accepted due to their efficiency in resolving disputes quickly while often preserving—or even strengthening—relationships between parties.

The book aims to deepen readers’ understanding of the legal frameworks that govern ADR across a variety of issues at both national and international levels. It examines the use of ADR in areas such as fintech, Islamic banking and finance, labour relations, and construction disputes. Topics like online dispute resolution, the Singapore Mediation Convention, and university-based arbitration are also covered. This comprehensive resource is valuable for both legal and non-legal audiences—including lawyers, arbitrators, mediators, academics, and students—who wish to gain clear insights into ADR without needing to consult multiple references.
