Arbitration

In the world of commercial business, arbitration is a frequently used procedure for the settlement of disputes. The parties submit to one or more persons selected either by themselves, by a neutral body, or by statute, and the arbitrators investigate the issues in order to make a final and binding decision. Arbitration is used in place of legal proceedings, and it can be a less expensive and more efficient way to solve legal disagreements.

Psychotherapy Malpractice

Psychotherapy is the treatment of mental and emotional disorders using psychological methods. This form of treatment does not include physiological interventions, such as drug therapy or electrotherapy, although it may be used in combination with such methods. Psychotherapists, like all other medical practitioners, are required to treat their patients with a certain standard of care. If they fail, and if the patient is injured, they may be held financially responsible for those injuries.
