CIArb Irish Branch runs a range of industry-level resolution schemes aimed at providing speedy, cost-effective settlement of disputes, based on pre-determined rules and processes.
The parties in dispute are aware of the maximum cost of the procedure at the outset, and the tailor-made rules leave no room for surprises in the procedure and powers of the arbitrator. In the majority of consumer schemes the claimant, who will be a consumer, does not pay any fees, or may have to pay a small administration fee, which they may be reimbursed if successful.
Each of these schemes are clearly defined and the process and documentation can be viewed through the links below.
