More corporations and businesses are turning to alternate forms of dispute resolution to resolve disputes. Instead of pursuing or defending claims through the traditional judicial court system, the interests of parties to a dispute may be best served by non-traditional forms of dispute resolution, such as mediation or arbitration. Francis, Orr & Totusek, LLP has significant experience representing clients in these alternate forms of dispute resolution and weighs these options with their clients in addressing legal issues.
Mr. Orr is also a qualified mediator, approved to accept appointments by courts to conduct mediations of cases pending before the courts. He is also a member and past chair of the Collin County Bar Association, ADR Section, and an advisory board member of the Center for Conflict Resolution at Abilene Christian University. Mr. Ridgell, as part of his legal education, received a certificate of dispute resolution from the Strauss Institute of Dispute Resolution at Pepperdine University School of Law.
