Frequently Asked Questions
Arbitration can be a complex process, and it’s natural to have questions about how it works, what to expect, and how it differs from other legal procedures. To help you better understand arbitration and its benefits, we’ve compiled answers to some of the most frequently asked questions. Whether you’re considering arbitration for the first time or looking to deepen your knowledge, this section provides valuable insights into the arbitration process.
What is arbitration, and how does it differ from litigation?
Arbitration is a form of alternative dispute resolution where a neutral third party, known as an arbitrator, hears both sides of a dispute and makes a binding decision. Unlike litigation, which occurs in a courtroom with a judge, arbitration is typically more private, faster, and less formal. The process is also more flexible, as parties can choose the arbitrator and set their own procedural rules.
What types of disputes can be resolved through arbitration?
Arbitration can resolve a wide range of disputes, including commercial contracts, employment issues, construction claims, intellectual property disputes, and more. It’s commonly used when parties seek a quicker, confidential resolution. However, some matters, such as certain criminal or family law cases, may not be eligible for arbitration and are instead handled by the courts.
Is the arbitrator’s decision final and binding?
Yes, the arbitrator’s decision, known as an award, is typically final and binding on all parties involved. This means that the parties must comply with the decision, and there are limited grounds for appealing the award. The binding nature of arbitration is one of its key differences from other forms of dispute resolution, such as mediation.
Can I choose my arbitrator, and how are they selected?
Yes, parties involved in arbitration often have the ability to choose their arbitrator, either by mutual agreement or by selecting from a list provided by an arbitration institution. The arbitrator is usually selected based on their expertise in the relevant area of law or industry. If the parties cannot agree on an arbitrator, an institution may appoint one on their behalf.
