[WSBARP] Demand for Arbitration

[Steve Nicol]

I didn’t have a part in putting together the contract.  But the contract states specifically no litigation—only binding arbitration—which  is fine.  I’m just not sure how to demand and serve the demand for arbitration without court involvement.

What’s the subject matter?

Many ADR professionals now recommend against mandatory arbitration provisions, favoring a mediation clause instead. You can always agree to arbitrate in mediation. If someone is insisting on an arbitration provision, it should be drafted as an option of last resort after other conflict resolution mechanisms have been exhausted.

Listmates,

Does anyone have a demand for arbitration for a contract that prohibits court but requires arbitration?

Thanks!
Steve
