Description
The Arbitration Agreement provides a framework for resolving disputes through binding arbitration in Massachusetts. This Agreement allows parties to outline specific claims, disputes, and controversies that will be addressed in arbitration rather than in court. It requires the initiation of arbitration through a written notice to the other party and the appointed arbitrator. For claims under a specified monetary threshold, the agreement allows for a single impartial arbitrator to be selected. The arbitrator's decision is final and binding, and the cost of arbitration is determined by the arbitrator or equally divided between the parties. The Agreement emphasizes the waiver of the right to a jury trial, illustrating a preference for arbitration over traditional court proceedings. This form is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants as it simplifies the dispute resolution process and provides clear guidelines for arbitration in Massachusetts. Users can tailor the Agreement to their specific needs while adhering to the legal framework, ensuring that disputes are handled efficiently.
