ARBITRATION SERVICES

Arbitration is an alternative dispute resolution process by which a third-party neutral formally hears and decides a legal dispute, resulting in a legally-binding settlement for parties that may be enforceable by the courts. Arbitration is much more formal than mediation in that arbitration attempts to simulate a real trial environment with Civil Rules of Procedure, discovery, rules of law, and testimonial witnesses being permitted. 

Arbitration is widely used in most commercial disputes as a pre-requisite before being able to file an official lawsuit. Arbitration is becoming more widely used in non-commercial disputes, such as family law and landlord-tenant disputes, to settle disputes in lieu of a court hearing because it saves parties time and money by having an experienced arbitrator decide the matter for them. During arbitration, parties must present their side of facts to a single, or multiple, arbitrator(s) that ultimately decide the fate of the case. Arbitration awards may be appealed on certain grounds.
