The Jackson ADR Handbook was created following recommendations by Lord
Justice Jackson for an authoritative handbook for Alternative Dispute
Resolution (ADR). The first edition, written in collaboration with a
specialist editorial advisory board, laid a strong foundation as an
essential guide to ADR, and received judicial endorsement in the Court
of Appeal and the Technology and Construction Court. The second edition
built upon that success, becoming a set text with the Bar Standards
Board. This fully revised third edition integrates a range of important
new case law, locates ADR within an increasingly digital landscape, and
addresses calls from within the judiciary for ADR to be incorporated at
all stages of the dispute resolution process.
Designed in a concise, user-friendly format, the text provides an
in-depth overview of the options and principles of ADR, before looking
at five focused areas: the interplay between ADR, CPR, and litigation;
negotiation; mediation; recording and enforcing settlement; and other
ADR options including the international perspective. Additional
materials such as mediation providers, specimen documents, precedents,
and practice tips are available on a companion website at
