The Jackson ADR Handbook Summary

The Jackson ADR Handbook by Susan Blake

The first book to focus on Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) post the Jackson reforms, this essential and practical guide follows recommendations by Lord Justice Jackson in his Review of Civil Litigation Costs that an authoritative handbook for ADR should be prepared. Lord Justice Jackson envisaged that this handbook would be on the desk or in the briefcase of every judge or lawyer dealing with mediation issues and should also be commonly used in Judicial College and Continuing Professional Development training sessions. With the assistance of an eminent Editorial Advisory Board, this work has been designed to assist practitioners and take account of the vital role ADR has to play in reducing the costs of civil disputes by fomenting the early settlement of cases. The book provides a practical resource for judges, litigators and others involved with ADR in a concise and user-friendly format. It includes an in-depth overview of the different options and principles of ADR, as well as sections on: the interplay between ADR, CPR and litigation; negotiation; mediation; recording and enforcing settlement; and other alternative dispute resolution options, as well as giving a summary of the international perspective. Additional materials such as mediation providers and specimen documents are available on a companion website.

The Jackson ADR Handbook Reviews

It is properly authoritative. It is readily accessible. I cannot commend it more highly... This book deserves to be the first and only port of call for every student of ADR irrespective of whether they are a litigant, a law student, a lawyer or a judge. I am sure that it will be. Lord Dyson, Master of the Rolls, from the Foreword I congratulate the authors and editors on this excellent handbook. This is exactly what I envisaged when drafting chapter 36 of the Review of Civil Litigation Costs Final Report. The Right Honourable Sir Rupert Jackson The importance of this handbook to the integration of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) within our civil justice system cannot be overstated ... no other ADR text has received such high profile endorsement - by Lord Justice Jackson, the Judicial College, the Civil Justice Council and the Civil Mediation Council. Ian Gatt QC and Anita Phillips, Counsel ... it is a superb summary and practical resource covering all the core principles, competencies, and legal frameworks surrounding the practice of ADR (Alternative Dispute Resolution), and particularly mediation, in the UK today. Mike Lind, TEDR
