Multi-Door Courthouse: A Reality Check
Multi-Door Courthouse sounds like progress. Sometimes it is. Sometimes it is a pause button dressed up as progress.
In this episode, Augusta Shahin breaks down what court-connected ADR is meant to do, where it goes wrong in real practice, and how to stop your matter from drifting into endless “we’ll continue settlement” sessions. You’ll hear a simple suitability test, a practical playbook for running referrals like case management, and the legal points under the Arbitration and Mediation Act 2023 that protect you (and how to document them properly).
If you have ever left a mediation session feeling like you just did attendance, this one is for you.
Related Product: Multi-Door Case Management Kit (Nigeria), including Lagos (LMDC) and FCT (AMDC) annexes, plus a fully drafted Terms of Settlement template with modular clauses you can deploy fast. Email [email protected] with subject “MULTI-DOOR KIT”.
SHOW NOTES
What multi-door is meant to be (triage, not theatre)
Why referrals fail: weak screening, no authority, no timelines, ADR as delay
The “two-session rule” and how to exit cleanly
AMA 2023: limitation suspension, settlement enforceability, documentation requirements
Toolkit: templates, trackers, settlement drafting pack, Lagos and FCT annexes
