Arbitration

Arbitration is a process by which a neutral, impartial third party hears the evidence and arguments presented by the parties and makes a decision to resolve the dispute. The parties agree by contract to be bound by the decision of the arbitrator.

Mediators and Arbitrators

Although the person assigned as mediator or arbitrator may be a member of the Lancaster Bar Association and a practicing attorney, no attorney/client privilege attaches to the communication between the parties and the mediator/arbitrator. THE MEDIATOR OR ARBITRATOR WILL NOT BE SERVING AS AN ATTORNEY OR ADVOCATE FOR ANY PARTY.
