Automotive Transactions
U.S. consumers and commercial fleet managers purchase and lease over 50 million automobiles from new and used car dealerships every year. They conduct after-market transactions totaling several millions more.
The Specter of Litigation
When disputes arise, parties may find themselves in court facing the prospect of expensive and time-consuming litigation. Attorneys' fees, costs associated with extensive discovery efforts, and expert witness expenses typically add up to a daunting sum for the litigants. And the path to justice is not likely to be swift—cases can literally drag out for years before coming to resolution in our overburdened court system.
The Advent of ADR
Alternative dispute resolution (ADR) provides consumers, businesses, dealers, manufacturers, and financers with a more expedient, amicable and cost-effective option. ADR offers participants the same rights and opportunities as court but at a fraction of the expense. Disputes are resolved efficiently; relationships and partnerships are preserved; and sound, legal decisions are achieved.
