What is Arbitration?
A procedure in which a dispute is submitted, by agreement of the parties, to one or more arbitrator who makes a legally binding or non binding decision on the dispute. This is a private dispute resolution procedure in lieu of going to court. This is a consensual proceeding, meaning both parties must agree to it.
