Data Privacy Framework Dispute Resolution
JAMS is available to serve as your organization’s designated alternative dispute resolution (ADR) provider and to assist in resolving disputes under U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC)-administered Data Privacy Frameworks self-certification privacy compliance programs.
Neutrality, Transparency & Ongoing Training
The vast majority of mediators and arbitrators who offer their services through JAMS are independent providers who focus solely on alternative dispute resolution and have no law firm or corporate affiliations. JAMS neutrals may accept appointments in non-administered ad hoc proceedings and matters administered by other organizations. Detailed bios of all panelists are available on our website, offering increased transparency and party choice in the neutral selection process. JAMS neutrals stay informed on the latest case law and ADR best practices via training from the JAMS Institute and many also hold credentials from the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators and similar professional organizations.
Exceptional Case Management
JAMS provides parties and counsel with concierge-level client care, including responsive, dedicated case management. Case managers offer hands-on support and handle administrative details with efficiency and consistency, allowing the neutral to focus entirely on resolving your dispute.
Predictable, Competitive Arbitration Pricing
For arbitrations conducted under JAMS rules, we offer fixed filing fees. Our administrative fee is a flat percentage of the neutral’s professional fees, tying it to the complexity of the case rather than the size of the dispute.
