Summary:
"While most of the hundreds of millions of insurance claims filed each year are resolved through the adjustment process, using alternative dispute resolution mechanisms such as arbitration, mediation, settlement conferences, and appraisal allow both claimants and carriers to avoid trying a dispute in court. Written for attorneys and claim professionals who want to better understand ADR mechanisms, this book also provides general information on insurance claim mediations and arbitrations, dispute resolution of claims involving international parties, and on ethical issues."--Provided by publisher.
