Arbitration/Mediation
Resolve Disagreements
Arbitration is a well-established and widely used means to handle disputes. Mediation is a simple direct party-centered process for dispute resolution.
The American Arbitration Association has been helping to implement arbitration as an out-of-court solution to resolving disputes since 1926. Two sides select an impartial third party known as an arbitrator. Both sides agree in advance to comply with the arbitrator’s award and participate in the hearing.
Mediation, a division within AAA, provides an informal negotiation opportunity to be conducted by an impartial party to resolve differences. It is an alternative to arbitration, or a step prior to, enhancing the likelihood of continuing the business relationship.
