The most compelling reason for retaining The Souffront Group’s services and expertise as an alternative to public or administrative adversarial processes is the cost savings in time and money to business firms and other stakeholders. Our services are extremely appealing as a substitute for litigation due to expeditiousness or the time savings and efficiencies associated with our methodologies which are tailored to respond to the specific needs and best interests of the parties involved in disputes.
In our experience, speeding up dispute resolution not only saves valuable and mission-critical organizational resources and opportunity costs, but also contributes to higher post-dispute resolution levels of satisfaction for all parties.
Another critical benefit of retaining our group is the control the parties have over the process instead of dependence on a court or other governmental agency, since the parties to a dispute design the ADR processes themselves, such as jointly selecting mediators or arbitrators with the desired subject-matter expertise.
In the context of international and multi-cultural disputes, The Souffront Group offers the whole range of ADR services including international mediation and arbitration. Our experts ensure that mediation settlement agreements and arbitration awards are internationally recognized and enforceable. Our group of professionals is fully bilingual in English and Spanish and some of them are both common- and c ivil-law licensed attorneys, well versed in addressing and satisfying the cross-cultural and idiosyncratic needs and expectations of parties to international and multi-cultural disputes.
