> why does arbitration even exist in your opinion?
It's a scam that was invented to keep the inventor out of the trouble they knew their shitty actions would cause for them.
You don't need a contract for voluntary arbitration, you only need it to force someone into it when it's not in their best interests.
> people are taking "arbitration" to mean "whatever the company wants."
The company is the party with the lawyers, and which forces the clause into the contracts. Of course they feel it benefits them.
I highly doubt they're wrong...
- logicallee 10y agoaren't lawyers usually not allowed at arbitration? (isn't that part of the whole point)?
- jpallas 10y agoYou may be thinking of small claims courts, where some states don't allow lawyers. Arbitration follows whatever rules the arbitration organization chooses.
- logicallee 10y agojpallas - okay - you're replying in two child comments, I've asked you followup questions above.
