The arbitrator issues binding decisions, enforceable under state and federal law and there is no need for a trial or the review of a trial court’s decisions by the appellate courts. Our Vermont arbitration lawyers are knowledgeable to answer any questions you might have and have the authority to bindingly settle your disputes.
