A good and effective opportunity for judicial dispute resolution is arbitration or other forms of alternative dispute resolution, which allow saving both time and resources. Moreover, it is a way for finding the best solution, by appointing arbitrators selected by the parties, who specialise in complex fields, such as infrastructure development and construction, real estate, navigation and transport, as well as insurance and finances.
