Internal Dispute Resolution
What is IDR
We facilitate dispute proceedings between parties in order to get them to agree and attempt, in good faith, to settle their dispute through an alternative dispute resolution option.
The IDR process is interest-based and not rights-based, meaning that it is focused on how the needs of each party can be met through a negotiated agreement.
