Appropriate Dispute
Resolution Programs
Welcome to the Appropriate Dispute Resolution (ADR) section
of the San Mateo County Superior Court web site. The San Mateo County Superior
Court’s ADR Program is called the “Multi-Option ADR Project”
or “MAP,” for short.
More and more people and businesses are using ADR to resolve
their legal problems. ADR is usually faster, cheaper and less stressful than
going to court. ADR also lets people resolve their disputes in a more private
environment. Some forms of ADR, such as mediation, give people the chance to
shape mutually acceptable agreements and can provide an opportunity for people
to settle their disputes.
The San Mateo Superior Court has seven different ADR
programs for different types of cases and disputes. Please click on
