Professor Thomas Stipanowich recently posted information regarding three major surveys conducted by the The Straus Institute’s Theory-to-Practice Research Project that produced a wide array of new information on arbitrator and mediator practices as well as insights into corporate use of ADR. Two of the surveys focused on dispute resolution professionals: a survey of experienced arbitrators with the cooperation of the College of Commercial Arbitrators (CCA), and a survey of experienced mediators with the cooperation of the International Academy of Mediators (IAM). The third was a survey of corporate counsel co-sponsored by a section of the American Bar Association’s Section on Public Utilities, Communication and Transportation (PUCAT) ADR Committee.
