FAQs

Contact the ADR provider facilitating the case. They can confirm your response.

Contact the ADR provider directly where you have filed the case for the next steps in legal proceedings.

A PDF receipt should have been sent to the email address you used to sign up and file the case. If you did not receive it, it is best to contact the ADR provider you filed the matter against. They will be able to send you a PDF receipt.

Most likely, you are not logging in using the registered email you have with your ADR Organisation’s. For example, if your ADR Organisation has your email address as ‘ryan@arbitrator.com’, but you decided to sign up on the platform as ‘ryan@mediation.com’, then the system won’t be able to match your ADR Organisation profile to your login. In these situations, it is best to contact your ADR Service provider to determine the email address they have registered on your profile and then create an account with that same address.

Immediation is a technology company that provides a platform to facilitate end-to-end alternative dispute resolution. We help sole mediators, arbitration centres, and accrediting bodies. We do not directly provide legal services.

In most cases, you can click on the back arrow next to the logo to file the case with the fees unpaid. This is, however, dependent on how your ADR provider has set up their intake form. If that does not work, then it is best to contact the ADR provider directly to determine the best way to file your case.

Later in the intake form, there is a section where you can provide additional details about the case. In that section, you can note that the actual claim amount exceeds the limit specified in the initial filing.

It’s recommended that you reach out directly to your ADR service provider for guidance on the most appropriate rules for your dispute. Please note that Immediation is not a law firm and cannot offer legal advice.

Typically, most intake forms allow you to add the participant and specify their role. In this case, you can enter the counsel’s details and indicate their role as ‘counsel.’ This will let you complete the form, and additional participants can be added to the case later if needed. However, some intake forms may differ. If you’re not sure, it’s best to contact your ADR service provider for guidance.

The way to do this is to download the document manually. Then you can print it out. There is no direct printing function on the platform.

This is dependent on how your ODR provider has set up their intake form, so it is always best to check with them. But in general, if two sections ask for the same thing, such as the Notice of Arbitration, if you complete one section, then there is no need to do the other. So, for example, if you upload the Notice of Arbitration, then there is no need to copy and paste it into the proceeding section where it asks for it again.

This is due to a security feature that allows the document owner—the person or group who uploaded the document—to lock it from being downloaded. In such cases, you can only view the document online. If you need to download it, it’s best to contact the document owner or your ADR service provider directly.

We now provide a de-confliction calendar where each party can select five days they are unavailable. We are working on integrating with a third-party calendar to provide users with a full calendar option. This is slated for the second half of 2024.

Currently, reconciliation between your platform and any accounting system you use is a manual process. The platform can export invoices and our required reports in CSV format, which will help in your reconciliation process. Integration with accounting systems is something slated on our roadmap for the second half of 2024. We are currently evaluating which accounting system to integrate, depending on customer demand.

No, we are video conference agnostic. You can use Zoom, MS Teams, Google Hangouts, and any other video conferencing platform. Your Immediation platform can continue to manage your case – communication, correspondence, invoicing, and neutral selection. Although we don’t have native integration with other web conferencing tools, the ability to at least log that these meetings happened outside the platform is slated for the second half of 2024. The benefit of using our video conference solution is that it is integrated into our calendaring system; it also has features such as DocuSign integration, pre-templated settlement agreements, co-drafting, complete audio and video controls, and party break-out rooms. We understand it is not for everyone and it is perfectly fine if you prefer to use other web conference tools.

You would have received an invite from your ODR service provider. Click on that email and make sure you sign up on the platform with the same email address to which the notification was sent. If you still do not see any details, it is most likely that your ODR service provider has not added you to the case as a participant. It is best to contact your ODR provider, ask them to add you to the case and double-check that they have used the correct email address when registering you as a participant.

There occasionally can be connectivity issues or file size constraints when previewing files in a browser. There is always an option to download the document to view it offline. This can differ depending on the screen, but you will see a ‘down’ arrow or three dots next to the file which will enable you to download it.

To do this, you’ll need to download the document by clicking the down arrow on the right-hand side. This will allow you to open and edit the document using your preferred word editor (e.g., MS Word). Once you’ve made the necessary edits, you can upload the completed document as part of your response. The option to type directly within a neutral response is planned for a future update of Immediation.
