Alternative Dispute Resolution in Practice: Driving Speed, Innovation, and Commercial Certainty in Nigeria
The evolution of ADR in Nigeria reflects a broader shift towards a more responsive, efficient, and commercially attuned system of justice.

Its ability to deliver timely outcomes, accommodate procedural innovation, and provide the predictability required in commercial transactions has strengthened its relevance within Nigeria’s legal framework.
