Defendant's Attorney: Craig Friedman and Erika D. Cagney

Description: White Plains, New York civil litigation lawyer represented the Plaintiff challenging an arbitration award.

"Arbitration law is the body of law that governs the arbitration process. Arbitration is a method of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) in which parties agree to have their dispute resolved by a neutral third party, known as an arbitrator, instead of going to court.

Arbitration law is designed to ensure that arbitration is a fair and efficient way to resolve disputes. It covers a wide range of topics, including:

The formation of arbitration agreements
The appointment of arbitrators
The conduct of arbitration proceedings
The enforcement of arbitration awards

Arbitration law is complex and varies from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. However, there are some general principles that apply to arbitration in all jurisdictions.

For example, arbitration agreements are generally enforceable if they are freely entered into by the parties and if they are clear and unambiguous. Arbitrators are required to be impartial and to conduct the arbitration proceedings fairly. Arbitration awards are generally final and binding, and they can be enforced in court.

Arbitration law is important because it provides a way for parties to resolve their disputes quickly and efficiently, without having to go through the time and expense of a trial. Arbitration is also a private process, which means that the parties' dispute will not be made public.

Here are some of the benefits of arbitration:

Arbitration is often faster and less expensive than litigation.
Arbitration is a private process, so the parties' dispute will not be made public.
Arbitration can be more flexible than litigation, and the parties can tailor the arbitration process to their specific needs.
Arbitration can be a less stressful way to resolve a dispute than litigation.

However, there are also some potential drawbacks to arbitration:

Arbitration awards are generally final and binding, and they can be difficult to appeal.
Arbitrators are not always judges, and they may not have the same level of experience and expertise as judges.
There is a risk that arbitrators may be biased in favor of one party or the other.

If you are considering arbitration to resolve a dispute, it is important to weigh the benefits and drawbacks carefully. You should also consult with an attorney to discuss your specific situation."
