Traditional mediation and arbitration are not the only tools available through JAMS. In some situations other approaches are more appropriate, effective and/or economical. These options, customized for specific organizations, industries and events, can prevent conflicts before they arise or provide more flexible, scalable and creative resolution paths when conflicts do emerge.

Not long ago, I spoke with a general contractor on a multinational infrastructure project. “We had five nationalities on-site,” he said, “and six different ways of interpreting the same deadline.” He wasn’t exaggerating.
In a recent televised segment with WFMJ, Kim Taylor, President and CEO of JAMS, joined the network to share her perspective on the role of mediation in resolving conflict—whether in business, the workplace, or daily life. The interview offered viewers a clear explanation of what mediation is, how it differs from litigation and arbitration, and when it can be most effective.
As courts continue to look for ways to deal with a burdensome backlog of cases, settlement conferences are proving to be a highly attractive means of lightening the load. For example, according to government sources, 61 district courts operated alternative dispute resolution (ADR) programs, with 60 of those districts conducting mediation or judge-hosted settlement conferences in 2023.
