Arbitration...



Arbitration Proceedings...

Arbitrations can be conducted in accordance with the applicable rules of the American Arbitration Association or other arbitration rules. Arbitrations can include discovery, hearings, and other formal proceedings, or can be streamlined and expedited. Our objective is to help the parties reach a fair and cost-effective resolution.


The Arbitrator...

The Arbitrator will have experience and qualifications commensurate with the nature of the relevant claims.
See Arbitrator Bio.


Use of Technical Experts and Resources...

When technical expertise is needed to better understand the merits of a case or to facilitate settlement, the arbitrator will utilize our technical experts and resources to act as a neutral source of technical evaluation and testing. For example, software can be evaluated and tested for conformance with specifications or performance guarantees in a software development agreement. As another example, technical tests may shed valuable light on whether a patent claim reads on a device, software or method. many other examples are possible. The Arbitrator will work with the parties and their attorneys to construct technical evaluations or tests useful to the resolution of the dispute. See Testing Laboratory.
