Conflict Solutions FAQ
What are the rights of the parties involved in arbitration regarding the selection of arbitrators and the confidentiality of the proceedings? The parties to the arbitration have a right to choose or have a say in the choice of one or more members of an arbitration tribunal. Unless both sides agree otherwise, in arbitration, all hearings, meetings, and communications, including the arbitrator’s final decision, are confidential between the parties involved and the arbitrator.
What is one of the key advantages of arbitration in resolving international disputes? Arbitration offers neutrality in the choice of law, venue, and procedure.
Why might parties prefer arbitration over litigation when resolving disputes? The alternative of litigation usually entails expense and delay; in particular court decisions allow for appeals which exaggerates both expenses and delays.
Why are arbitration awards considered easier to enforce compared to court judgments? Arbitration awards are more easily enforceable as generally speaking they are recognized both in Canada and other countries.
In what ways is arbitration more flexible than court proceedings? Arbitration is more flexible than court proceedings both in time and procedure. If a dispute needs urgent resolution the parties can choose an arbitrator who acts promptly rather than obliges the parties to wait their turn in a very lengthy queue. And, the formal Rules of Court do not apply.
