<![CDATA[This article aims to analyze the factors causing disputes over the determination of inheritance assets, examine the alternative dispute resolution mechanisms that have been implemented, and assess the effectiveness of mediation, negotiation, and other forms of non-litigation resolution in providing legal certainty and maintaining harmonious relationships among heirs. This study employs an empirical legal methodology using a case study approach. Data were collected through interviews with the disputing parties and community leaders, as well as through a review of court decisions. The findings indicate that inheritance disputes are generally triggered by differing perceptions regarding the ownership status of assets, the validity of the inherited assets, and the unilateral control of the decedent’s estate. The findings reveal that alternative dispute resolution mechanisms, particularly through mediation and negotiation, are more effective in creating peaceful, swift, and equitable solutions compared to litigation. The implications of this study underscore the importance of strengthening the role of ADR in Indonesia’s inheritance legal system as an instrument that not only ensures legal certainty but also maintains social harmony among heirs.]]>
