Trusted Experts in Arbitration, Conciliation, and ADR Services in India

First Law House – Resolving Disputes with Integrity as Your Arbitration Lawyer in Delhi, India.

Most of the time, traditional litigation proves to be cumbersome, expensive, and emotionally exhausting in the fast-paced world of business and law. Here is where Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) methods come in by providing expedient, nonpublic, and most frequently friendly means to resolve legal disputes, such as by arbitration and conciliation. First Law House has dedicated its practice to providing expert legal assistance in Arbitration and Conciliation Matters, so clients benefit from having complex disputes resolved effectively yet amicably in the context of business continuity.

What is Arbitration and Conciliation? 

Both arbitration and conciliation are types of ADR, but it is often said that they have different procedures: 

  • Arbitration is a formal occurrence whereby a neutral third party (the arbitrator) is appointed to hear both parties and deliver a decision binding upon them, much like a court judgment. 
  • Conciliation is rather informal and lays more emphasis on flexibility. In conciliation, a conciliator plays a more informal role in helping parties settle their dispute amicably but does not impose his decision upon them. 

These methods are particularly helpful in civil, commercial, contractual, and corporate disputes and are recognized by law under the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996.

Why Choose Arbitration and ADR Over Litigation? Insights from a Leading Arbitration Lawyer in India

  • Quick resolution: Long timelines in the courts don’t apply as far as disputes are concerned, but rather are solved with dispute resolution mechanisms.
  • Cost-Effective: Minimizes expensive legal procedures and litigation costs.
  • Private Process: Different from court proceedings, arbitration and conciliation remain private.
  • Preserving Relationships: Managing differences through ADR promotes dialogue and compromise rather than hostility.
  • Legally Binding Outcomes: Like court decrees, arbitral awards have the force of law.

At First Law House, we understand conflict doesn’t have to be a war. We aim to protect your interests in a manner that minimizes conflict and unnecessary delays.
