Dispute Resolution and Legal Costs
Definition
Unresolved claims lead to free DIA mediation for members, paid third-party reports, ADR, or court within 6-year limit. Court awards compensation but businesses bear partial costs if non-compliant.
Key Findings
- Financial Impact: AUD 300+ shortfall per claim (e.g., AUD 500 award vs AUD 800 replacement); AUD 500-2,000 in legal/third-party costs per case
- Frequency: Per escalated dispute, increasing with claim volume
- Root Cause: Lack of standardized processing, poor record-keeping, and failure to use Fair Claims Guide promptly
Why This Matters
The Pitch: Laundry services in Australia 🇦🇺 lose AUD 300-1,000 per escalated claim on disputes and court. Automation of early fault detection prevents escalation costs.
