ADRNA provides Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) services in Northern Australia designed to facilitate and assist individuals, families, communities and organisations to resolve conflict in a cost effective and efficient manner.

Our ADR processes are designed to manage conflict and produce mutually beneficial outcomes by empowering participants to:

• maintain control of their decisions and options;

• avoid adversarial and costly legal battles;

• choose cost effective and efficient alternatives; and

• limit blame and move forward.

What is mediation:            

ADRNA specialises in mediation, which is the process through which those in conflict are supported to identify issues, establish common ground, generate options and reach agreement to resolve dispute.

The mediator acts impartially to facilitate positive and collaborative discussion between the parties in dispute, rather than give advice or make decisions for the participants.
