US Arbitrators Toolkit
by Practical Law Arbitration
| Maintained • USA (National/Federal) |
A Toolkit of resources for arbitrators presiding over arbitrations in the US. This Toolkit includes resources that explain how to become an arbitrator, arbitrator best practices, and considerations for arbitrators presiding over proceedings under the rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA), the International Centre for Dispute Resolution (ICDR), JAMS, the International Institute for Conflict Prevention and Resolution (CPR), and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA).
Arbitration in the US usually proceeds before either a solo arbitrator or a panel of three arbitrators consisting of one chair and two wings. Whether an arbitrator serves as a solo, chair, or wing, the arbitrator faces challenges at each stage of the proceedings to ensure the arbitration is fair and efficient.
This Toolkit provides resources to help arbitrators presiding over US arbitrations and individuals wishing to become an arbitrator. It includes resources on arbitrator best practices and issues the arbitrator faces in proceedings governed by the rules of:
- The American Arbitration Association (AAA).
- The International Centre for Dispute Resolution (ICDR).
- JAMS.
- The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA).
The resources in this Toolkit can help practitioners conducting arbitrations in the US by identifying and providing insight on issues arbitrators consider when presiding over the various stages of an arbitral proceeding.
