Abstract
The article explores two primary methods of dispute resolution: mediation and litigation. While both approaches aim to resolve conflicts, they differ significantly in process, cost, time, and outcome. This paper examines the advantages and disadvantages of each method, providing insights to help parties choose the most suitable approach for their specific situation. Through a comparative analysis, we highlight the growing preference for mediation due to its efficiency, confidentiality, and collaborative nature. However, litigation remains a viable option for complex cases requiring legal rulings and enforcement. Ultimately, the choice between mediation and litigation depends on the nature of the dispute, parties' preferences and desired outcomes.
