Arbitration is very much like trying a case in court except that you don’t have a judge with a robe on and you don’t have a jury, and there are single arbitrators, and there are arbitration panels that consists of three arbitrators. Arbitrators are taken from retired judges, but also active lawyers who have specialized in a certain field that the arbitration is about. It’s quicker and they, people say, a more efficient way of resolving disputes without publicity.
