First, a little background:
Arbitration and Mediation are alternatives to the legal system. They are not a court.
Mediators help two parties come to an amicable agreement. They are a disinterested 3rd party who assists the two in coming to an agreement they can both agree upon.
Arbitrators are slightly different. They are a trusted 3rd party whom both parties trust to come to a decision that is mutually beneficial.
As the market is currently empty of both services, I will offer both, at rates to be decided on a case-by-case basis (but never more than $150 equivalent, currently
). The funds will be deposited in a clearcoin (or similar escrow service) account, and held there until both parties are satisfied with the decision. This decision will be PGP signed by myself, and then both parties, and held by myself, and if desired, made available publicly.I welcome, and indeed encourage, competition.
Contract arbitration clause (use in contracts to agree to use me from the beginning):
