Alternative Dispute Resolution

Alternative Dispute Resolution – Mediators and Arbitrators


Barnwell Whaley mediators and arbitrators work to reach agreement between the parties to a dispute, efficiently and cost effectively. As cases back up for years in court and the costs associated with litigation rise, more courts are requiring alternative resolutions before a lawsuit is allowed to go to trial, and many contracts specify binding arbitration or mediations as the only means to settle a dispute between the parties to the contract.

Our Charleston, South Carolina mediation and arbitration team has many attorneys certified both as arbitrators and mediators, providing skilled, experienced, objective counsel to reach a resolution amenable to both parties. All members of the Barnwell Whaley mediation team are trained in dispute resolution techniques. They are familiar with the law applicable to a wide variety of disputes so that they can provide a neutral, balanced view to all parties in a lawsuit.

The Charleston, South Carolina offices of Barnwell Whaley Patterson & Helms, LLC have been built with facilitation in mind. Six conference suites provide ample room for private counseling in separate quarters and larger spaces to bring all parties together to reach a resolution. We provide presentation equipment, including videoconferencing.

The Barnwell Whaley mediation suites are located at 211 King Street in downtown Charleston at the corner of King and Market Streets.  Ample parking is available onsite in the City of Charleston parking facility.  We are happy to provide parking validation for our clients.
