Arbitration & Conciliation Lawyer in Delhi / India

The Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act governs the arbitration statute in India. It is based on the Model Law on International Commercial Arbitration adopted by the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law in 1985. Previous statutory provisions on arbitration were contained in three different enactments, namely, the Arbitration Act, 1940 the Arbitration (Protocol and Convention) Act, 1937 and the Foreign Awards (Recognition and Enforcement) Act, 1961. The Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 has repealed the Arbitration Act, 1940 and also the Acts of 1937 and 1961.

Pre-Litigation Mediation
Litigation is a suit which is still pending in the court process. Whereas, Pre-Litigation mediation takes place even before the court process/litigation begins.  It is voluntarily action opted by both the parties. It is a prior attempt to resolve the dispute before the case goes through the court process. It follows an assisted negotiation process.

We recommend our client to opt for Pre-Litigation mediation in many cases, before initiating litigation in the court, as it saves time and money of the parties as well as it is a speedy process; and they also get to know about the temperament, deeds and demands of either side of the parties. The procedure takes place with the help of a mediator, he promotes communication but the procedure holds great confidentiality in its own. The mediator works with both the parties along with their counsels for dispute resolution and does not impose his decision upon the parties.
All types of cases can go through the beneficial means of Pre-Litigation Mediation like matrimonial disputes, business disputes, insurance disputes, civil disputes etc.

Any dispute settlement made in Pre-Litigation Mediation is written & signed by both the parties and further filled in the court in the form of a proper settlement agreement and such agreement arising out of pre-litigation mediation is binding upon both the parties.
