A Northern California Super Lawyer, attorney John S. Poulos is a partner at Lewis Brisbois, Bisgaard, and Smith in Sacramento. Although John S. Poulos focuses on commercial litigation, he has significant experience handling binding arbitration cases for clients in and around Sacramento. A form of alternative dispute resolution, binding arbitration involves a neutral third party making a decision regarding a dispute between two parties. In this process, both involved parties have the opportunity to present their cases before a decision is made. Ultimately, the parties agree to comply with arbitrator’s decision. The most common form of binding arbitration is voluntary arbitration. Often, this form is agreed upon well in advance in the form of a contract that stipulates arbitration as the dispute resolution method. This is a common feature in labor law and contracts between unions and employers. Mandatory arbitration, which is usually required by legislation, is less common. This form of arbitration requires parties to use binding arbitration when specific issues arise.
