OUTSTANDING
Arbitration means appointing an independent, professionally qualified and skilled expert to evaluate the formal evidence provided by each of the parties, and make the final decision that is in accordance with the law. Arbitration could be Contractual or Voluntary. The decision of the Arbitrator is normally legally binding as the decision will be enforced by the court, but it is also possible to conduct non-binding arbitration if the matter is very complex.
