ICADR International Centre for Arbitration and Dispute Resolution.

ICADR - An Introduction

The justice dispensing system in India has come under great stress for several reasons, chief of them being the huge pendency of cases in courts underlining the need for Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) methods. The Government of India thought it necessary to provide a new forum and procedure for resolving international and domestic disputes quickly. The ICADR is an autonomous organization working under the aegis of the Ministry of Law & Justice, Govt. of India with its headquarters at New Delhi and Regional Centres at Hyderabad and Bangalore. The Regional Centres of ICADR are fully funded and supported by the respective State Governments. The Chief Justice of India is the Patron of ICADR. At the regional level, the Chief Justice of the concerned High Court is the Patron of the Regional Centre of ICADR.

However, one needs to enquire about the next programmes.

Mediation between cousins.

Mediation between the cousins over the inherited property based on an oral will.

This mediation got triggered on a Whatapp. The family wants to settle a property dispute based on an oral will. The cousins are scattered all over the globe. The question now is who will bell the cat?

The following is some simple suggestions given to them with regards to the benefits of mediation

1. It is faster. People arrive at mutually agreeable conclusions in a few sitting's.

2. It is more reasonable than court litigation. 

3. Helps a healthy communication happen.

4. Keeps bitterness away.

5. Everyone concerned with the case gets a voice.

6. Helps you towards better relationships than before actually.

7. When unresolved matters linger there is unwanted stress effecting the health of all concerned.

8. Going legal specially in this case would mean expensive, long court visits.

9. The next generation will benefit when the documents are concrete and in place and have been arrived at with mature consenting adults. ( A legacy far better than the property in question).

10. They also learn the value of resolving issues through dialogues. Rather than rushing to a court.
