In the traditional model, each side brings their lawyers, who hire the necessary experts and other professionals, and each (usually two parties, sometimes many parties) presents their respective case to the finder of fact. Comprehensive Adjudication utilizes recognized legal experts, preapproved by all parties, to thoroughly identify and analyze all of the relevant law and evidence – and swiftly provide a legally enforceable decision resolving the dispute. The parties jointly interview and select an attorney with specific expertise in the relevant legal specialty to act as their neutral “Adjudicator” for purposes of investigating the facts and promptly deciding the dispute.Its proponents claim this paradigm offers a more civilized approach, purports to reach a just resolution for far less money than the less efficient system of litigation.
