Palm Beach Gardens, FL -- (SBWire) -- 09/25/2019 --Online Dispute Resolution or ODR has been a service previously associated with major brands such as eBay for online disputes and transactions. Today, ODR has become a new standard in the mediation and resolution of personal and business matters such as contract disputes, foreclosure, divorce, child support, alimony, paternity, time sharing, and child custody or timesharing. Resolving a dispute online has been proven to be far more efficient than scheduling and meeting in-person for a mediation session.
Matthew Brickman, founder of iMediate Inc., has branded his own online mediation platform known as "iChat Mediation". It uses a customized version of the Cisco WebEx communication platform proprietary to iMediate Inc. Live resolution is performed via iChat in a video conference where Mr. Brickman controls how many parties attend and which parties can directly see and communicate with whom.
Mr. Brickman has found that many of his clients now prefer to resolve their disputes online. The factors of cost and time efficiency in comparison to traveling to a physical location and dealing with the other party face-to-face is an undeniable key to the company's success.
He explains who is using ODR and why in a video uploaded to his YouTube Channel.
iMediate Inc. has seen exponential growth in the past ten years by using online dispute resolution to bring the parties of any mediation, arbitration, or negotiation into a virtual environment via iChat.
Advantages of Online Dispute Resolution:
1. Cost. ODR is often less expensive than traditional litigation/legal process.
