What Does It Mean to Settle a Case?
To settle a case is to resolve a dispute before it goes to trial. Generally, this happens through negotiations between the plaintiff (the party initiating litigation) and the defendant (the party being sued by the plaintiff).
Negotiations may occur in mediation, arbitration, or another ADR method. In fact, many Florida judges encourage or even require parties to attempt to settle cases outside of court before taking them to trial.
Why Settling Is Beneficial
Whether you are pursuing legal action or facing the threat of it, you may benefit from settling your case. First and foremost, doing so expedites the legal process and reduces costs. Pursuing a dispute in a trial could take months or even years. This extended period makes trial expensive. By reaching a settlement, you can spend less time navigating legal challenges and get a cost-effective resolution.
Other benefits of settling cases include the following:
- Greater control over the case’s outcome, as the resolution will not be left up to a judge or jury.
- Protection for reputations. In settlements, there is not often a determination of fault, which is advantageous for parties interested in avoiding the adverse effects of litigation on their images.
- Increased confidentiality. Trials are a matter of public record. Through ADR, it is possible to keep the details of a settlement private.
