The Arbitration Agreement outlines the process for resolving disputes related to the sale, purchase, or occupancy of a manufactured home in Maryland. Arbitrage, in this context, is a legal mechanism whereby parties agree to settle disagreements through an arbitrator rather than in court. The agreement is crucial for users like attorneys and paralegals, as it fundamentally alters how claims may be processed. Users must note that all disputes will be ruled upon by a single arbitrator or a panel—determined by the amount in dispute—under the American Arbitration Association's Commercial Arbitration Rules. It is essential for individuals filling out the form to provide accurate information, including their and the retailer's details. The arbitration process not only saves time but can also offer a more efficient means to resolve conflicts. Before initiating arbitration, the notice of intent must be sent and detail the specific claims involved, with special consideration given to the statute of limitations. This agreement highlights that by choosing arbitration, parties waive their right to a jury trial, emphasizing the importance of understanding these implications before signing.
