The document discusses alternative dispute resolution (ADR) clauses and provides tips for drafting effective ADR clauses. It notes that ADR clauses are often poorly drafted and can undermine dispute resolution. It defines ADR and the roles of negotiation, mediation, and arbitration. It then provides four tips for drafting ADR clauses: keep multi-step clauses short and simple; avoid vague terms; ensure mediation clauses address the appointment of mediators; and keep arbitration clauses short while addressing essential details like the number of arbitrators and rules to use. An example of a simple arbitration clause is also included.
