Panel: ADR as the first resort – in-person

Thursday, 20 November 2025
 1.5 CPD Units In-person
 5:30 PM  8:00 PM


The Law Society of New South Wales, 170 Phillip Street, Sydney NSW 2000

Join us at the Law Society for the annual ADR Committee CPD and networking event - a panel discussion between eminent practitioners and the opportunity to contribute from the floor on the benefits and challenges in the use of ADR processes early in disputes. 

If litigation is the last resort, should ADR be the first? What are the options? Is it ever too early to mediate?

The panel discussion will be followed by a catered reception, to continue the conversation and network with peers.

The Honourable P A Bergin AO SC, Barrister, 9 Selborne Chambers
