We also respond to non-court dispute resolution procedures through financial alternative dispute resolution (ADR) and other mediation and arbitration. We also support the resolution of lawsuits filed in foreign countries on international disputes through collaboration with overseas member firms of the PwC global network and other foreign law firms.
