Arbitration Hearing Clause Examples
The arbitration-hearing clause establishes the procedures and framework for conducting arbitration hearings in the event of a dispute between parties. It typically outlines how hearings will be scheduled, the format they will follow, and the rights of each party to present evidence and arguments, often specifying whether hearings will be in person, virtual, or based on written submissions. This clause ensures that both parties understand the process for resolving disputes outside of court, providing a clear, structured, and efficient method for dispute resolution.
