Description

The Arbitration Case Submission Form is designed for use in Maryland to initiate binding arbitration between parties. This form must be completed with details of the Claimant and Respondent, including their names, addresses, and contact information. It requires the parties to confirm whether they have signed an arbitration agreement and if they have consented to arbitration. Key features include sections to specify the case type—ranging from personal injury to employment disputes—and to indicate whether a specific arbitrator has been selected. This form is particularly valuable for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants handling cases requiring arbitration, as it streamlines the submission process and ensures compliance with legal requirements. Users must carefully fill out the form, ensuring all relevant information is provided and accurately reflects the agreement between parties. Additionally, it allows for the specification of expenses associated with arbitration, promoting transparency in costs. This submission is crucial for maintaining clarity and aiding in the efficient resolution of disputes outside of traditional court proceedings.

FAQ

An arbitration clause precludes your disgruntled client from filing suit against you or your company. Instead, the unhappy client must commence an arbitration action with the arbitrator specified in the agreement, often the American Arbitration Association (AAA).

Arbitration agreements are generally enforceable in all 50 states; particularly in commercial settings between sophisticated parties. However, courts in many states are hostile to “fine print” arbitration agreements, particularly between employers and employees.

Arbitration Clause Is Enforceable Even If It Does Not Comply Please note that even if an arbitration clause does not comply with the MHIC requirements, it nonetheless is enforceable between the parties.

Opting-out of an arbitration agreement typically means that you would resolve any future disputes in court instead of through arbitration. Most opt-out options have very specific time frames so you will generally need to complete the opt-out process in the time set in the agreement.

If the contract is valid, the court will look to the arbitration provision. As long as the parties understood that they were giving up their right to resolve their dispute in court, including having a jury decide the facts of their case, a court will most likely uphold the arbitration provision.

In Maryland, for most civil actions you have a period of three years after the act which caused you the harm to file a lawsuit. However, by law some types of cases have a different limitation period. For example, the limitation period for assault, libel, or slander is one year.

These cases range from breach of contract or licensing agreements, business torts, and franchise to construction and infrastructure disputes in companies from start-ups to the Fortune 500 in a variety of industries.
