Summary/Abstract: Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) is a common name for a number of methods for a peaceful dispute' resolution, which are widely accepted in most states today as an alternative to the standard litigation procedure. The promotion and wide application of these methods are directly related to the excessive court caseload and lengthy court procedures, the problems which jeopardize one of the fundamental human civil rights - the right of access to court and the right to provide legal protection within a reasonable time. Many countries have recognized the potentials of the ADR techniques in overcoming these problems by offering their citizens an opportunity to resolve their disputes by peaceful means, thus avoiding the costly, slow and inefficient court proceedings.
