Arbitration Defined. Arbitration is a process in which persons with a dispute (1) waive their rights to file a lawsuit and proceed in court before a judge or jury; and (2) agree, instead, to submit their dispute to a neutral third person known as an “arbitrator” for a decision resolving the dispute. Each party to an arbitration has an opportunity to present evidence to the arbitrator although the ability to conduct discovery is limited. Arbitration proceedings are private and less formal than court proceedings. The arbitrator will issue a final and binding decision resolving the dispute. That decision may be enforced as a court judgment. A court rarely overturns an arbitrator’s decision.
