Cost Effective Alternative Dispute Resolution

Opposing parties may require arbitration services when they are unable to reach a resolution amongst themselves or through negotiations via professional mediation services. In some cases, arbitration may be mandated by contractual agreements, court orders, and other stipulations.

Whether appointed by a judge, a contract, or the parties, an arbitrator serves as a neutral third-party tasked with the adjudication of a dispute. Upon starting the arbitration process, the arbitrator becomes empowered by the parties to render a final decision that may be submitted to the court for judgment. In most cases, the arbitrator’s decision is final and there is no appeal process to overturn the arbitrator’s decision.

Arbitration services are the less formal, yet cost effective and time-saving alternative to traditional litigation. Arbitration is a more-focused version of a trial, which includes things like representation by legal counsel, oral arguments, and the use of witnesses. The arbitrator will consider the arguments made, the testimony, the law, and the evidence presented before rendering his or her final decision.

There are many benefits to arbitration when compared to traditional litigation. The costs of traditional litigation, plus the obligatory delays and overloaded dockets, make arbitration a popular alternative for an affordable, reasonable, and timely resolution.

For many clients, confidentiality is the sole purpose for choosing arbitration over traditional litigation. If the parties agree, and subject to certain legal exceptions, arbitration proceedings may be kept confidential, which helps the parties protect their trade secrets, avoid public scrutiny, and respect each other’s privacy.
