TOPIC OF DISCUSSION
TO LITIGATE OR ARBITRATE, THAT IS THE QUESTION: WHEN IN DOUBT, MEDIATE!
The construction industry is contentious! So, what is the best way to resolve disputes?
There are various factors to consider before agreeing to one particular procedure:

• Cost:  Don’t believe that arbitration is always cheaper!
• Time:  Litigation will take longer, especially when the courts are backlogged.
• Finality:  No right to appeal in arbitration.  That’s good or bad depending on your outcome.
• Settlement:  Mediation is the fastest and cheapest way to the finish line.

MEETING AGENDA:
Lunch | 11:30 a.m.-11:50 a.m.
BPI Session  | 11:50 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
