There are several legal issues that can arise in arbitration proceedings. One common issue is the enforceability of the arbitration agreement, which is the contract between the parties that establishes their agreement to resolve disputes through arbitration instead of through the courts. Another legal issue that may arise is the fairness of the arbitration process, including questions about the impartiality of the arbitrator or the adequacy of the procedures followed. Additionally, there may be challenges to the final award, such as a claim that it was based on an error of law or that it exceeded the arbitrator’s authority. These and other legal issues can be complex and it is important for parties to consult our arbitration experts before and at every stage of the arbitration proceedings.
