What does the arbitrator do?
As soon as the parties appoint an arbitrator (or a panel of arbitrator), a preliminary conference will be set for the arbitrator and the parties to sit together, identify the issues, when and what documents will be exchanged, whether experts are needed, and set out the timelines for the arbitration proceeding. A hearing will be set. Documents and evidence will be exchanged. Parties will be given an opportunity to respond to the other parties' case. After the hearing, the arbitrator will issue a decision that will have the same effect as if the case was decided by the court.
