Скачать или смотреть Mediation vs. Arbitration: Which is better? Michigan & Ohio Law

If you’re involved in a lawsuit, a divorce, or a business dispute in Michigan or Ohio, the court will likely order you to attempt Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) before you can ever see a jury. While both processes happen outside of a courtroom, they couldn't be more different in how they end.

In this video, a Michigan and Ohio attorney explains the pros and cons of mediation and arbitration. We look at how mediation acts as a "facilitated negotiation" where the mediator has no power to force a settlement. We also discuss arbitration, which functions like a mini-trial where you present evidence and witnesses, and the arbitrator issues a final "award" that is legally enforceable.

You’ll learn why real estate contracts in Michigan and Ohio often include mandatory arbitration clauses and what it means to waive your right to a trial. We cover the "Med-Arb" hybrid—where a case starts in mediation and moves to arbitration if no deal is reached—and why the limited right to appeal an arbitration award makes it one of the most final decisions in the legal world. Whether you want to preserve a relationship or just get a definitive answer, choosing the right ADR path is critical.

✅ In this video, a Michigan and Ohio attorney explains the differences in power, cost, and finality between mediation and arbitration.
