Document background
The Forced Arbitration Agreement serves as a crucial legal instrument in Canadian business relationships, mandating that disputes be resolved through arbitration rather than court litigation. This document becomes necessary when organizations wish to establish a more efficient, private, and potentially cost-effective dispute resolution mechanism. The agreement must comply with federal legislation such as the Commercial Arbitration Act and relevant provincial arbitration laws. It typically includes detailed provisions on arbitrator selection, cost allocation, procedural rules, and the scope of arbitrable disputes. The Forced Arbitration Agreement is particularly valuable for businesses seeking to avoid lengthy court proceedings while maintaining confidentiality in dispute resolution. It requires careful drafting to ensure enforceability across Canadian jurisdictions and may need customization based on specific provincial requirements.
