What cases are best for arbitration?

If your case involves factors like privacy concerns, the need for a quicker resolution, or the desire to avoid a public jury trial, arbitration might be an ideal solution. However, if you're worried about the finality of the arbitrator's decision or the potential for bias, you might prefer the traditional court route.

What not to say in arbitration?

Never say anything to an arbitrator unless you are 100% sure it is correct. If you don't know the answer to a question, simply say, I don't know the answer but will get it for you promptly. Arbitrators respect lawyers who can zealously advocate for their clients and work out procedural issues with opposing counsel.
