The Arbitration Agreement outlines the binding arbitration process for disputes relating to the purchase, sale, or occupancy of a manufactured home in Oakland. It clarifies that this agreement is part of the sales contract and falls under the Federal Arbitration Act, ensuring that all parties, including the retailer and purchasers, must resolve claims through arbitration rather than court. Key features include the requirement to provide written notice for arbitration initiation and the selection process for arbitrators based on the amount of the claim. The form emphasizes that arbitration decisions are final and binding, and any challenges to the validity of the agreement are determined by the arbitrator. This agreement is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants as it provides clarity on the arbitration process, the rights waived in a jury trial, and guidelines for dispute resolution. Completing the form ensures all parties are informed and in agreement with the arbitration process, making it an essential part of the sales contract.
