There are other Alternatives to Litigation. You may choose facilitation which allows the parties to have a managed discussion about particular subjects with a trained man or woman leading the group conversation keeping them focused, directed and on point. One way that this process has been described is an intensive and directed focus group.

You may also consider arbitration as another Alternative to Litigation. This is like having your own private judge, hired by both sides, not by the government, making binding rulings on the case in a semi-formal trial format. This process is usually quicker than a trial. You can present evidence and witnesses before the arbitrator. The decision is ultimately made by the arbiter or judge. In this format at the end of the day,you have no control over the decision making process and you must accept whatever the judge or jury says without question.

Again the judge or jury simply decides that they know what is best for you or the other side and make all the decisions for you. If the outcome is in your favor, then you may think that they judge or jury knew the all of the facts and made the right decision for you. If you lose, however you may think that the judge and juries are just human, they made a mistake in their decision making process and guessed wrong because they did not really understand all of the facts.
