Abstract: A computer executable system and method for dispute resolution with advance funding capability. After calculating a difference between the demand and the offer in at least one round and determining whether the difference falls within at least one criterion, the claim is resolved if the difference falls within the at least one criterion, the claim is resolved if the difference falls within the at least one criterion. The claim remains unresolved if the difference does not fall within the at least one criterion. A surety module is provided which enables the prospective payee to direct the payment to it in a specified manner. The surety module may also put a hold on funds of the prospective payor pending payment by the payor to the payee of the amount upon which the dispute is settled.

Abstract: A method and system for automated bargaining is disclosed. The method and system are used in testing non-equal values in normal rounds for satisfaction of a condition. If the condition is not satisfied in the normal rounds, power round values are tested for satisfaction of a power round condition. If the power round condition is satisfied, a binding bargained payment is calculated. Additional options involve an automated facilitator, windfalls to initiators, automatic payment initiation, multiparty aggregation and automatic agreement document generation.

If the condition is not satisfied in the normal rounds, power round values are tested for satisfaction of a power round condition. If the power round condition is satisfied, a binding settlement payment is calculated. The awardee of the settlement payment is offered a plurality of disbursement options for the settlement payment which he or she may choose from. Additional options involve an automated facilitator, windfalls to initiators, automatic payment initiation, multiparty aggregation and automatic settlement document generation.

Abstract: A computer executable system and method for dispute resolution with advance funding capability. Opposing parties to a claim can submit at least one demand and offer; the offer and demand are not disclosed to the opposite party. After calculating a difference between the demand and the offer in at least one round and determining whether the difference falls within at least one criterion, the claim is resolved if the difference falls within the at least one criterion. The claim remains unresolved if the difference does not fall within the at least one criterion. An authorization for at least one entity to accept a payment of proceeds from a resolved dispute in exchange for having funds provided to the first party is received and funds are transferred from the entity to the first party.
