Thinking Of Using An Arbitrator? By: Karel Stan | - Hold on tight because today we are going to explore the exciting and much misunderstood differences between going to an arbitrator vs. legislation. Arbitration is a form of alternative dispute resolution (ADR), but, as opposed to the other most popular ADR forum called mediation, at the end of the process the winner of the case is decided by the arbitration committee rather than the disputing parties.
Is Arbitration The Right Choice? By: Karel Stan | - As a type of Alternative Dispute Resolution, arbitration brings in a neutral party, to make a decision about the dispute. Sometime only one arbitrator is needed to decide a dispute, but often an arbitration panel consisting of three or more arbitrators. Arbitration usually turns out being much less expensive than bring cases to court. Business associates often include this as clause in their contracts as a way of resolving any disputes that may arise.
