Issues associated with ADR

♤ No guarantee towards final resolution unlike the case in traditional judiciary.

♤ Lack of professional training amongst conciliators and arbitrators, coupled with ignorance amongst the general public.

♤ Concentrated mainly around big cities thereby limiting its effectiveness.

♤ Lack of institutional infrastructure in India for the promotion of ADR.

♤ Some forms of ADR are as costly or even more than the adversarial system of justice.

♤ Situations where amicable settlement through ADR is not favoured acts as a natural limitation.
