Arbitration is a process whereby parties agree to refer their disputes to an arbitrator instead of the courts. The arbitrator acts like a judge and his decision is binding upon the parties.
The Chartered Institute of Arbitrators offers both Accredited Mediator Training as well as Mediators to act in dispute resolution. Mediation is an informal, voluntary process.
Conciliation is an alternative dispute resolution option in any commercial dispute. The vast majority of conciliations arise out of contracts used in the construction industry.
Adjudication is a judgmental process. The contractual rights and the facts at issue in a dispute are considered by an independent party.
Expert determination is a dispute resolution process where the parties have defined positions that need to be subjected to arbitration.
Other services provided also include: Early Neutral Evaluation: Dispute Board: Judicial Appraisal: and Med-Arb that may best suit industry and disputes that do not easily fall into the other main categories.
Held in The Hilton Belfast, on the 29th September 2011.
