About Arbitration
Arbitration hearings are for many, a quicker, more cost-effective and less confrontational approach than standard litigation for the resolution of commercial and business disputes. Often, essential business ties can be preserved after arbitrations and opposing parties are able to work together towards the final decision, which is made by an arbitrator or a panel of arbitrators who are specialists in the subject matter of the case, employed by the parties as a neutral body. Within 30 days, the chief arbitrator will decide upon an arbitration award: a legal document enforceable in a court.
There are two different forms of arbitration: binding and non-binding. In binding arbitration, parties must agree to abide by the arbitrator's decision. While in non-binding arbitration, the process is used to help establish an advisory opinion - which the opposing parties may or may not abide by. Arbitrations follow the evidential and procedural regularity of court proceedings but take place out of court in a less formal and less rigorous setting than litigation.
Arbitration differs from mediation in one critical aspect. An arbitrator must remain neutral but, using his/her expertise and knowledge of the subject, decide who is right. A mediator must only assist the parties themselves to come to a reconciliation or agreement with no judgement. However, a mediation settlement is also legally enforceable.
Arbitration in Japan
In light of the changes made in recent years to the Japanese judicial system, Japan has amended its regulations regarding arbitration. Although Japanese jurisdiction has always favoured arbitration as an alternative to court proceedings, The Arbitration Act (enforced in 2011) applies to tribunals with broader, multi-national interests. This amendment indicates the increasingly global nature of the arbitration.
