Book Description

This law school casebook presents a comprehensive treatment of the legal issues involved in the use of arbitration. The first four chapters address issues that arise in private arbitration, that is, arbitration that is the product of an agreement between two contracting parties. The last chapter addresses issues that arise in court-ordered arbitration. Together they will give the student an understanding of arbitration law, and provide a foundation for legal practice, whether in alternative dispute resolution or in the civil justice system.
