There is a difference between an arbitration and a trial.
In arbitration, the case is heard by one or more arbitrators. These cases are not heard in front of juries. The formal rules of evidence don't apply, unless the parties have agreed otherwise. In general, there are not pre-hearing motions.

 

Legal disputes and their resolutions are often time consuming and costly processes and despite the towering number of lawsuits in this country, you might be one of many people that avoid courts for those exactly reasons.

Arbitration is a method of dispute resolution through a neutral third party, the arbitrator, either a practicing or retired Florida attorney. The arbitrator issues binding decisions, enforceable under state and federal law and there is no need for a trial or the review of a trial court’s decisions by the appellate courts. Our Florida arbitration lawyers are knowledgeable to answer any questions you might have and have the authority to bindingly settle your disputes.

Generally, if people couldn’t resolve their disputes through mediation, they used to file a legal claim. More recently, however, Florida arbitration lawyers demonstrated the efficiency and more and more people in Florida have realized the advantages of arbitration over litigation:
