Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Litigation involves a lawsuit being filed and the case being presented before a judge who renders a legally binding decision. This is different from arbitration, which is a dispute resolution process where a neutral third party makes a decision that the parties may or may not agree to, and mediation, which is a process where a neutral third party helps the parties reach their own agreement without making a decision for them. Negotiation is a process of trying to come to a mutual agreement between the parties without the involvement of a neutral third party or a judge.
