Description
The Arbitration Agreement is a legal document designed to facilitate the resolution of disputes between purchasers of manufactured homes and retailers, specifically in compliance with the Federal Arbitration Act. In Chicago, for example, if a dispute arises from the sale or financing of a home, the parties will refer the matter to binding arbitration governed by the American Arbitration Association's rules. Key features of the agreement include the requirement for written notice if arbitration is initiated, how claims valued under or over twenty thousand dollars are handled, and the obligation for arbitrators to be experienced attorneys. Additionally, this agreement waives the right to a jury trial, emphasizing the alternative pathway for dispute resolution. Attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants can utilize this form to streamline conflict resolution processes, ensuring efficient handling of claim disputes while adhering to legal standards. It serves as a guide for initiating arbitration, while making clear the rights and responsibilities of each party involved.
