A court decision in a dispute scenario is most often settled based on legal principles and is imposed by the judge when he renders his decision. In aribtration - a neutral 3rd party hears both sides to the situation and suggests possible alternatives which may, or may not, be acceptable to both sides. In the end - a successful aribtration will end in both sides coming to an agreement on basic principles and settling the dispute without the necessity of a court imposed decision which may not really be acceptable to either of them.

What are some alternatives to court?

Mediation and arbitration are some alternatives to court. Mediation--A process by which two people having a dispute agree to work together to settle the dispute with the help of an impartial 3rd party mediator. The process is usually inexpensive and has about an 80% success rate in civil matters. It is also confidential. Mediation is available through your local dispute resolution center--see the phone book. Also, from personal experience as a mediator, I can assure you that it will ensure that the parties to the dispute can remain civil to each other. Arbitration--A process by which the parties agree to plead their cases to an attorney or retired judge instead of in court. This is also inexpensive and saves a great deal of money over a court trial. Arbitration can be binding (cannot be appealed) or non-binding (can be appealed). Arbitration of disputes is usually done by the American Arbitration Association, National Arbitration Forum, or Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (JAMS). Arbitration sessions are closed to the public, however, any arbitration judgment may be entered into any court having jurisdiction.


What is court ordered arbitration?

Court-ordered arbitration is a legal process where a court mandates the parties involved in a dispute to resolve their issues through arbitration rather than through traditional litigation. This typically occurs when the parties have previously agreed to arbitration in their contract or when the court believes arbitration is appropriate for the case. The arbitrator's decision is usually binding, meaning it has the same legal effect as a court judgment, and can only be challenged in limited circumstances. This process aims to reduce the court's workload and provide a more efficient resolution to disputes.


What is the source of an arbitrator's authority to arbitrate?

The source of an arbitrator's authority comes from the parties to the dispute being arbitrated. Both parties agree that their dispute will be settled through arbitration rather than through litigation and they enter into a contract promising that the arbitration will be binding they will abide by the decision of the arbitrator. If one party refuses to honor the arbitrator's decision, the other party can go to court and have the court enforce the arbitration decision, but it won't have to litigate the actual dispute all over again.


Arbitration Offers Court-Free Dispute Resolution?

Arbitration is a process that aims to resolve a dispute between at least two parties without assistance from the court system. Some binding agreements stipulate that disputes automatically be settled through arbitration. This generally includes situations such as: • selling of securities through a stock broker • buying and selling of property • purchase of a new car • opening a bank account In efforts ton control rising litigation costs, many businesses are turning to arbitration to settle legal disputes. Some companies even have their own rules for resolution of disputes. Increasingly the results of arbitration are considered to be legally binding in a matter. Another option is for arbitration to be the first step in solving a resolution. The Federal Arbitration Act of the 1920s and later the Uniform Arbitration Act of 1955 helped make arbitration a widespread practice throughout the United States. While arbitration is a way to avoid the court system, the courts have in fact enforced arbitration contracts and agreements as being legally binding. Why arbitrate? While there are some situations where the parties involved have no choice but to use arbitration to settle a dispute, there are some general reasons why arbitration can be a beneficial way to settle a dispute. • less expense involved than typical court-based resolutions • generally yield a faster result • results are considered to be more favorable to both parties since those making the decision tend to be knowledgeable in the issues at hand • arbitration disputes are private, as opposed to court proceedings which are usually public record The Revised Uniform Arbitration Act of 1962 allows the parties involved to amend requirements involved with the arbitration. Parties may agree to allow more or less discovery. The provisions of arbitration are generally flexible if all parties are in agreement, but can not be in violation of existing laws. It is important to realize that any award made in arbitration is usually very hard to overturn, unless it is in clear violation of the law. Before signing a contract or agreeing to settle a dispute with arbitration it is vital that all parties involved know what the terms of arbitration will be in the event of a dispute. Generally arbitration is a less expensive and more flexible and overall more agreeable way to settle a dispute. Just remember that the end results are difficult to alter.

What is the most common form of alternative dispute resolution?

Alternative Dispute Resolution (commonly referred to as "ADR") is any means of settling a legal dispute without actually going to court. Mediation is a very common form of ADR, as is Arbitration (binding or not). There are other forms as well, and many courts require that some form of ADR is attempted before the case goes to trial. ADR is especially helpful for simple cases that can easily be decided without a judge and jury. Most mediators/arbitrators (persons acting as the judge and jury in mediation or arbitration, respectively) are themselves retired attorneys or judges. ADR involves many of the same things you would do in court (e.g., filing a brief of your argument), but without the formality and cost.
