Supreme Court of South Australia
Niya Singhal, Shayla Retnaraja, Felicia Xing, Evelyn McArdle, Lucy Claughton, Jemimah Satchell and Mrs Palmer had the amazing opportunity to visit the Supreme Court on Tuesday 19 November 5.30pm – 6.30pm to attend the ADC’s annual Alternative Dispute Resolution Address, presented this year by Dr. Peter Kassapidis, Adjunct Lecturer at the University of Adelaide. We were fascinated by his take on ADR’s role in the shifting legal landscape, as a financially accessible and time-efficient method of resolving civil disputes. Dr. Kassapidis highlighted how ADR empowers parties to retain control over their decisions, rather than having a third party resolve the dispute for them.
This prestigious event was attended by school students, barristers, lawyers, and Alternative Dispute Professionals, creating an enriching environment for discussion and learning. The topics and questions raised during the address were thought-provoking and illuminated ADR's relevance in a rapidly changing world. We were particularly intrigued by Dr. Kassapidis’ predictions for the future, where he foresees ADR advancing further to resolve disputes more effectively.
Participating in this event granted us the invaluable opportunity to gain insights into the evolving legal landscape and begin to reflect on how we might apply ADR principles in future contexts. Engaging with such a distinguished speaker not only broadened our understanding of dispute resolution, but also sparked conversations about how equitable and innovative methods like ADR can continue to transform the pursuit of justice for individuals and communities alike.
