Business Name: Ironclad Dispute Resolution Services
Phone: 614 230 0670

Eric Wittenberg of Ironclad Dispute Resolution Services, LLC believes that resolving legal conflicts through discussion and negotiation, rather than adversarial court battles, is more cost-effective, less stressful and allows for more innovative solutions.

Eric helps clients with developing negotiated settlements in a variety of settings, including mediation, arbitration and alternative dispute resolution. He focuses exclusively on business and real estate disputes and construction claims.

Eric has extensive experience in a variety of alternative dispute resolution methods and settings, with more than thirty years of experience in handling civil litigation, including extensive trial experience, he understands the benefits and costs of avoiding litigation.

In situations where adversarial methods do more harm than good in the long run, mediation should be considered before a lawsuit is filed. Often, in the contexts of business relationships, the parties in the dispute will need to have continuing contact with each other after the dispute is resolved. By facilitating a negotiated settlement, it is possible for goodwill to be preserved and cooperation to be practiced, so that this ongoing contact is productive and equitable for all.
