Cheers to a great month!
I was privileged to engage in a stimulating and thought-provoking podcast session with Ijeoma Ononogbu on Expert Views on ADR (EVA) Vid /Podcast Show. Ms Ononogbu has over fifteen (15) years of international legal experience from working with international law firms in London as a solicitor, specialising in commercial transactions and ADR processes in private practice. She serves as a CIArb Business Arbitration Scheme panel member.
She wears many hats, so I left the link to her profile: https://uk.linkedin.com/in/ijeomaononogbu.
In this episode, we analysed the concept of arbitration, its types and key features. We delved into the various types of disputes that can be resolved through arbitration and examined the issue of corruption within arbitration. We also explored how arbitration has enhanced access to justice in the UK. This includes the initiatives of arbitral institutions to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) and tackle cybersecurity concerns.
Furthermore, we highlighted the impact of third-party funding on access to justice and the efficiency of settling disputes through arbitration compared to litigation. We also discussed the recently amended rules of the arbitral institutions aimed at enhancing the effectiveness of arbitration. Finally, Ije highlighted the positive career opportunities in the field of arbitration.

Let’s keep in mind the importance of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI)-which encompasses policies and practices to foster an inclusive environment where individuals from diverse backgrounds feel valued and welcomed.
It is imperative to state that many companies, organisations, and institutions have proactively implemented programs to promote diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplaces. While significant progress has been made for women and underrepresented groups /ethnicities, I believe there is still work to be done to advance the representation and inclusion of disabled individuals and the LGBTQIA community.
The irony of DEI is that despite significant theoretical progress, practical implementation still presents challenges; as a result, it is imperative to actively promote events focused on DEI, specifically involving the LGBTQIA community, to drive advancements in this critical area.
The Federal Bar Association (FBA) Alternative Dispute Resolution has courageously taken a bold step by organising the first-ever ‘Pride in ADR event.’ I look forward to attending this event because ADR is for everyone, and no one should be excluded!

During my time in Hamtramck, I had the privilege of participating in a stimulating and thought-provoking podcast with Dwydell Garrett, the son of Sarah Sims Garrett. He shared with me the details of a landmark case that lasted over five (5) decades, from 1968 to 2024 – the case of Sarah Sims Garrett et al. v City of Hamtramck. The case has far-reaching implications for housing disputes in the US and highlights the resilience of the Garrett family and others involved in the class action. It also raises the question of whether appropriate or alternative dispute resolution (ADR) through mediation could have expedited the case’s resolution.

Dwydell——–I believe this case has resulted in a fairer outcome for low-income individuals. It seems that many companies take advantage of the lower class to benefit the wealthier class. However, the community and its people are essential for the city to thrive. They pay taxes and water bills, and without them, the city cannot function. It’s crucial to provide housing for the community, and small corner stores are also important as not everyone can easily access larger stores. Therefore, it is vital to support and maintain our community stores to keep our community thriving.

I was privileged to engage in a stimulating and thought-provoking podcast with Alec Chapa on Expert Views on ADR (EVA) Vid / Podcast Show. Alec is committed to helping groups of people work together more collaboratively, transparently, and effectively. An accomplished mediator, conflict resolution practitioner, and published researcher, he has worked with employers, business owners, landlords and tenants, HR leaders, and nonprofits to prevent and solve legal problems, support collaborative decision-making, and constructively resolve conflicts before they turn into expensive lawsuits.
He wears many hats, so I left the link to his profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alec-chap…
In this episode, we offered a detailed analysis of ADR and its relevance in addressing housing disputes in the US. We examined the interconnectedness between ADR and housing-related issues, assessing its suitability and exploring the extent of housing dispute backlogs in the US. Also, we discussed the potential of ADR in alleviating these backlogs in the US courts. Dr Chinwe shared an excerpt from an article on the City and County of San Francisco Government page, underscoring ‘How ADR can be used to settle Housing issues outside the rent ordinance and those that fall under the Rent Ordinance.’ This prompted a discussion about the practical application of this law and its potential applicability in other parts of the US, with Alec providing a comprehensive overview of its implementation in some states.
Against this backdrop, we outlined the step-by-step process for parties to initiate a housing settlement via ADR while scrutinising the eligibility of landlords and tenants to utilise ADR for dispute resolution. Finally, Alec provided a comprehensive analysis of the benefits and drawbacks of employing ADR to address housing disputes or conflicts and highlighted the necessity for more collaboration among ADR organisations/sections to improve public awareness of the above subject matter.
