Arbitrations

Arbitrations can be conducted pursuant to a statutory mandate in accordance with the Labor Code, or by agreement of the parties. Arbitrations are conducted in the same manner and format as trials and include the taking into submission of evidence, including exhibits and of oral testimony of witnesses, including experts, if desired. Evidentiary rulings will be made and, in the case of civil litigation, motions in limine will be ruled upon prior to the proceeding. A final ruling, written decision or judgment will be entered.

Mediations

Mediation is a process in which the parties participate voluntarily. The mediator is selected by mutual agreement of the parties. Any issue may be presented to the mediator for resolution.
