Two very good reasons to choose an arbitration clause.

• Arbitration provides a quicker decision-making process than does our backed-up court system. Courts can take months or years to schedule a case. Arbitration, on the other hand, can be completed in just weeks.
  
  
• Arbitration will provide an arbitrator who he is experienced in the construction industry. That is probably the most important factor.

The arbitrator usually comes out of the building inspection field. They know construction. They know what acceptable standards in construction are. They know what the wording, phrases and clauses of standard construction agreements mean.

Most people and the most contractors usually, readily agree to arbitration when considering the speed with which a decision can be reached. If there is not already an arbitration clause in the contract, it can be added as an attachment to the contract.

Construction arbitration can be obtained from the American Arbitration Association (AAA) and the Better Business Bureau (BBB).
