What do you like about this subject? Arbitration and Mediations are a growing trend in the field of law. Both arbitration and mediation provide a more expedient and cost effective alternative from litigation.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field? Resolving issues in a less expensive and faster forum is always best for the parties.

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know: There is a difference between arbitration and mediation. Arbitrations involve a fact finder making a determination on the facts presented in the case. The factfinder is the arbitrator who listens to evidence. A mediator is a person who facilitates a settlement between the parties and does not decide the facts of the case.
