Additionally, KMWorld -- a leading information provider serving the Knowledge Management systems market -- gave clickNsettle.com a 4 star rating, out of 5 possible stars. "This arbitration site could be the answer for some of the massive legal battles corporate America faces. The idea is almost too simple," says the website review. "NAM's goal is to become one-stop shopping for anyone involved in any type of litigation, anywhere in the world. We want to provide this service quicker, more economically and more efficiently than anyone and believe this goal can be accomplished through solid execution and advancement of our legacy in-person arbitration and mediation services, as well as achieving hypergrowth in our Internet settlement program," says Roy Israel, President and CEO of NAM. "We envision that clickNsettle.com will redefine the legal industry by changing the basic nature of the transaction: better, quicker and less expensive. Being mentioned in the New York Post article with theglobe.com, Kozmo.com, and other successful cutting-edge Internet companies, being compared to eBay and Amazon.com by ABC Network News, and receiving a positive rating from KMWorld is an indication that we are on the right track and that clickNsettle.com's global potential is being recognized." clickNsettle.com utilizes an interactive settlement format that allows disputing parties to enter "blind" and confidential offers and demands, via the Internet, to settle cases. The program provides disputants with the ability to negotiate cases with their adversaries without actually "tipping their hand" about what amounts they would accept for settlement. The demands and offers are secure and only the final settlement amount is ever revealed. This ensures that neither party loses any bargaining power in the event that a case does not settle. Additionally, disputing parties have the option to auto-submit cases to NAM for traditional arbitration or mediation in the event an online settlement is not reached. The program provides extensive reporting for both online and traditional arbitration and mediation results and settlement statistics.
