A Forced Arbitration Agreement is commonly used in the United States when organizations wish to manage dispute resolution outside the traditional court system. This contract type is particularly relevant following several Supreme Court decisions upholding the enforceability of such agreements. The document typically outlines the complete arbitration process, including initiation procedures, arbitrator selection, cost allocation, and specific terms of the arbitration process. While governed primarily by federal law through the Federal Arbitration Act, state laws may also apply in specific circumstances. These agreements are increasingly common in employment, consumer, and business relationships, though they must be carefully drafted to ensure enforceability and compliance with both federal and state requirements.
