Nowhere are conflicts more likely to happen than in the Entertainment, Cultural or Creative Industries where subjective elements like ideas, concepts, and designs are critically important. With the best of intentions, well meaning collaborators can disagree in fundamental ways and jeopardize the process or end result of a venture.

The legal system’s traditional remedies take too much time and cost too much. As a result, either the most powerful voices prevail or the ventures fall apart or both.
