Mediation vs. Arbitration in Denver
Although arbitration and mediation are both used to resolve disputes, they differ in several key ways. First, mediation is usually much less formal and time-consuming than arbitration. It is also often significantly less expensive. Mediation is also non-binding; that is, it is not enforceable unless all parties agree to all terms and get a court to approve their agreement.
Arbitration is typically more formal than mediation and involves a hearing process in which a dispute is brought before someone for a decision.
An arbitration hearing may include:
- Discovery
- Presentation of evidence and testimony
- Formal briefing
The arbitrator may also prepare a written opinion of facts and findings as part of his or her decision. More importantly, unlike mediation, arbitration is binding on all parties whether they like the outcome or not.
