What is Christian Arbitration?
What is the difference between mediation and arbitration?
Mediation brings all issues to the table to be discussed and ideally resolved. Arbitration is exclusively about a wise and impartial arbitrator/judge giving a final binding decision at the request of parties who are at an impasse.
Who would be involved?
An arbitration involves all authorized parties affected by the conflict, plus any non-party representatives such as attorneys or pastors, and relevant witnesses who are called to testify.
What services are provided in a Christian arbitration?
An ICC Certified Christian Conciliator™ specializing in arbitration will guide you through an adjudication process ending in a binding judgment that will give all parties a final decision. This decision can be considered in a court of law.
What if I have a conciliation clause in my contract, but the other party refuses to go to arbitration?
If there is a signed contract with a conciliation clause and an agreement to follow the Rules of Procedure for Christian Conciliation, there are times when arbitration can occur in the absence of one party under Rule 37. ICC Peace reserves the right to decline a Rule 37 request.
