Arbitration/Alternative Dispute Resolution
Alternative dispute resolution is a rapidly growing area of the law. It offers people a timelier and more cost effective option for settling legal issues than traditional litigation. The two most common methods of alternative dispute resolution are arbitration and mediation.

What is Arbitration?

Arbitration enables you to settle your legal dispute outside of court. Instead of going to trial, an experienced legal professional, typically an attorney or a judge, will listen to the facts of the dispute and make a ruling that will resolve the issue.

Arbitration proceedings can either be binding or non-binding. Rulings made in binding arbitration cases usually will not be appealable. Non-binding arbitration generally occurs when the arbitration proceeding is ordered by the courts. These cases are generally appealable. While arbitration is most common in labor, construction, and securities regulation disputes, it has recently become increasingly popular in other commercial litigation disputes as well.

The Arbitration Process

A neutral third party, the arbitrator, will be selected to preside over the case. All parties involved in the dispute must agree with the selection of the arbitrator. The arbitrator can either be a single person or a panel of legal professionals.

The arbitrator will lead negotiations and propose potential resolutions to your dispute. Arbitration continues until an agreement is reached by all parties. The decision of the arbitrator will be enforced by both federal and state courts.

Advantages of Arbitration

Arbitration offers the following advantages over litigation:

• In disputes involving highly technical subject matter, you are able to hire an arbitrator who possesses the appropriate knowledge and expertise in the field to ensure a more fair judgment. In litigation, the judge will often not possess this knowledge.
• Arbitration will frequently save you a great deal of money on legal expenses, and your dispute can be resolved more quickly.
• The arbitration process is more flexible than litigation.
• Because many arbitration awards are binding, you avoid the time and expense involved in lengthy appeals.
