Venable LLP

Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Arbitration but Were Afraid to Ask

Most of our corporate clients prefer arbitration whenever possible. Arbitration—if it works properly—is usually faster, cheaper, and confidential and provides subject-matter expertise not generally available in front of a jury. However, this is far from universally true. Many of our clients would be much better off in the jury system for some disputes, as opposed to presenting their case before an arbitrator, where things are not always faster and cheaper and there is no right to appeal. It all depends.

Venable partner John Worden, a fellow in the American College of Trial Lawyers and chair of the San Francisco Bar Association’s Arbitration Section, will discuss everything you wanted to know about arbitration (and then some).
