The Section is revered as a forerunner in alternative dispute resolution in the state and throughout the nation because of the past leadership and dedication of the Honorable Frank Evans, Colleen McHugh, Jan Summer, Lanelle Montgomery, Kim Kovach, Charles Guittard, Bruce Stratton, David Cohen, Wendy Trachte-Huber and now Suzanne Mann Duvall. For the Section and the Council to be successful, we must understand the roots of our past while looking toward the future., We should keep in mind our purpose as stated in Article I, Section 2 of the Bylaws, which is to promote the use and quality of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) in Texas. The Alternative Dispute Resolution Section of the State Bar of Texas is a relatively newSection, but it has a rich history beginning at the time it was a Committee of the State Bar. Through the tireless leadership of people dedicated to alternative dispute resolution, the State Bar and Young Lawyers' Association Committees on Alternative Dispute Resolution, with the assistance of the Texas Bar Foundation, published in 1987 The Handbook of Alternative Dispute Resolution New Horizons for the Texas Justice System, totaling 148 pages. In 1990, 426 pages filled a comprehensive second edition of the Handbook on Alternative Dispute Resolution. The Second Edition was heralded by many as the bible on alternative dispute'resolution and is still requested today.. The Committee organized well attended symposiums and seminars on alternative dispute resolution.
