What are alternatives to small claims court?
Mediation and arbitration are very good alternatives to small claims court. They can be especially attractive if your claim exceeds the small claims court jurisdictional limit, or if you cannot afford expensive legal fees.
Mediation is a process where you and the other party sit down with a neutral third party and work out a mutually agreeable solution to the dispute. Mediation proceedings are strictly confidential, and anything said in mediation cannot be used in a court of law. Mediation is desirable because it can be set up within weeks, whereas it takes up to a year to get to trial in civil court (or even small claims court). Both parties will spare the expense and stress of hiring attorneys and having a court trial. If you are skeptical, remember that mediation boasts an 80% success rate; why not give it a try? Mediation puts you in control of resolving your dispute.
Arbitration is a process where both parties sit down before a neutral third party (usually a practicing attorney or retired judge) and present their cases. While it is somewhat like a court trial, there are important differences. First of all, the proceedings are closed to the public. Second, the "trial date" is usually within 3 months, not 12 months like civil court. Finally, the arbitrator's decision is final unless there was irregularity in the proceedings or the parties agreed to non-binding arbitration before the arbitration award was made. However, both parties must agree to arbitrate the dispute.
