About Web-Dispute


Web-Dispute, AltCourt Online Mediation, is an online video application that offers parties a practical and timely alternative to a traditional mediation session. Web-Dispute, powered by AltCourt Video Chat, is ideal for low to moderate value claims ($100,000 or less) ready to be resolved in a two-hour session where time or money is too limited to warrant an in-person mediation session. While Web-Dispute is an efficient option for many types of cases, it may not be appropriate for all cases. Please contact us to discuss whether Web-Dispute is the right ADR format for your matter.

With Web-Dispute you can access the high-quality mediation expertise you expect from AltCourt and enjoy the convenience that an online platform offers. A standard Web-Dispute session includes a two-hour mediation session with a video and phone connection for up to four participants, plus the mediator. With credit card billing, no additional administration fees and a flexible cancellation policy, Web-Dispute provides real cost and time efficiencies.

 

Key Platform Features

  • Real-time streaming video
  • Participation by up to 10 participants2
  • Virtual caucus rooms for private conversations with the mediator
  • Online chat functionality
  • Document sharing
  • Electronic signature capability
  • Operator support for a seamless experience

 

How It Works


The Web-Dispute platform is easily accessible, requiring only a phone and computer with a webcam, to conduct a mediation from anywhere. If parties have determined their matter is appropriate for Web-Dispute mediation, you can submit a case inquiry by completing the form below or by contacting us directly at AltCourt or 1-251-444-6174 or mediate@altcourt.net

 

A Web-Dispute case manager will then help parties select a neutral from the Web-Dispute exclusive panel and assist in the case convening process.

Once the mediation session has been scheduled, confirmed participants will receive information about how to access the Web-Dispute mediation session, including dial-in instructions for audio as well as a link to access the video portion of the session.

The parties will receive a fee agreement and confidentiality agreement which must be completed and returned in order to confirm the mediation session.

 

Cancellation Policy


Web-Dispute has a two business day cancellation policy. See Web-Dispute FAQ’s below for more details about our cancellation policy.
