FAQ
You cannot sue or be sued after you sign an arbitration agreement. If the original contract included an arbitration clause, it means that both parties agreed not to pursue legal action in court against the other. Any disputes that arise will have to be settled through arbitration.
The object of arbitration is to ensure a fair resolution of disputes by an impartial tribunal without unnecessary delay or expense. The parties should be free to agree how their disputes are resolved subject only to such safeguards as are necessary in the public interest.
Furthermore, you usually can't appeal an arbitration agreement. Therefore, if you feel like the arbitrator's decision is unfair or wrong, you don't have the right to have the appellate court take a second look at it. You are bound by the decision of the arbitrator.
Under the Armendariz standards, an arbitration agreement will not be enforced in California if it is both "procedurally unconscionable" and "substantively unconscionable." Any arbitration agreement required as a condition of employment (i.e., any mandatory arbitration agreement) is automatically considered procedurally
The Federal Arbitration Act provides that the enforceability of an arbitration agreement, is determined using generally applicable contract defenses, such as fraud, duress, or unconscionability. Under California law, a contract signed under economic duress may be rescinded.
Arbitration agreements require that persons who signed them resolve any disputes by binding arbitration, rather than in court before a judge and/or jury. What is binding arbitration? Binding arbitration involves the submission of a dispute to a neutral party who hears the case and makes a decision.
Unconscionable Arbitration Agreements Will Not Be Enforced You can also escape an arbitration agreement by demonstrating that the terms of the agreement itself are inherently unequal in favor of the employer. Courts require both of the aforementioned methods to show the agreement is unconscionable, thus unenforceable.
There is no right to appeal in arbitration like there is in court. If the parties agree to use the AAA to handle the appeal, the AAA will treat the appeal like a new case filing and more fees would have to be paid. Under federal and state laws, there are only a few ways to challenge an arbitrator's award.
In binding arbitration, the arbitrator's decision is final. It may not be reviewed or overturned by a court except in very limited circumstances, such as when fraud or misuse of power has been involved. In nonbinding arbitration, either party may reject the arbitration award and demand a trial instead.
To make the agreement appear more fair, some companies include a provision that allows you to opt out of the arbitration clause by sending them a letter, usually within a short time after you enter the contract.
