In commercial agreements, it is common practice to include clauses that address potential future disputes. Arbitration is a widely accepted method for resolving conflicts through an impartial, mutually agreed-upon arbitrator, rather than going through the court system. The arbitrator carefully reviews the claims, evidence, and arguments from both parties before issuing a binding decision.
Unlike court proceedings, arbitration is faster, more efficient, and cost-effective, helping businesses resolve disputes professionally and confidentially. Due to these advantages, arbitration has become a preferred dispute resolution method for businesses in Israel and globally.
