Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research A

Purpose of the Project

This research aims at finding why and how people contact with consulting or ADR agencies and what significance the contact had in problem solving or dispute resolution. In so doing, the research also tries to examine what merits and demerits the agencies have in providing their services from the service consumer’s point of view. For this purpose, we will conduct interviews with people who experienced some kind of legal problems.
