JAMS

Provides mediation and arbitration for disputes

Overview

JAMS provides mediation, arbitration, neutral analysis, and court-appointed special master services to resolve complex disputes. Its processes are run through a panel of over 500 neutrals (mostly retired judges and senior attorneys) and organized across 29 global resolution centers, with rules tailored to case size such as Comprehensive Arbitration Rules for disputes over $250,000 or Streamlined Rules for smaller matters. The firm differentiates itself with a large, private ADR network, deep experience among its neutrals, and a full suite of dispute-management tools for complex, multi-party conflicts. Its goal is to deliver efficient, confidential, and cost-effective resolutions outside traditional courts, while supporting dispute-resolution initiatives through the JAMS Foundation.
