Arbitration is, today, most commonly used for the resolution of commercial
disputes, particularly in the context of international commercial
transactions and sometimes used to enforce credit obligations. It is also
used in some countries to resolve other types of disputes, such as labour
disputes, consumer disputes or family disputes, and for the resolution of
certain disputes between states and between investors

[edit] History
It is not known exactly when formal non-judicial arbitration of disputes
first began but it can be said with some certainty that arbitration, as a
way of resolving disputes predates formal courts. Records from ancient
Egypt attest to its use especially with high priests and their interaction
with the public. Arbitration was popular both in ancient Greece and in
Rome.[1][2]
Under English law Philippine arbitration lawyer
, the first law on arbitration was the Arbitration Act
1697,[3] but when it was passed arbitration was already common. The first
recorded judicial decision relating to arbitration was in England in
1610.[4] The noted Elizabethan English legal scholar Sir Edward Coke
refers to an earlier decision dating from the reign of Edward IV (which
ended in 1483). Early arbitrations at common law suffered from the fatal
weakness that either party to the dispute could withdraw the arbitrator's
mandate right up until the delivery of the award if things appeared to be
going against them (this was rectified in the 1697 Act).

The growth of international trade however, brought greater sophistication
to a process that had previously been largely ad hoc in relation to
disputes between merchants resolved under the auspices of the lex
mercatoria. As trade grew, so did the practice of arbitration, eventually
leading to the creation of a variant now known as international
arbitration, as a means for resolving disputes under international
commercial contracts.
Today, arbitration also occurs online, in what is commonly referred to as
Online Dispute Resolution, or ODR. Typically, ODR proceedings occur
following the filing of a claim online, with the proceedings taking place
over the internet, and judgment rendered on the basis of documentation
presented. net-ARB.com is the world's leader in Internet Arbitration.
Procedures which necessarily lead to a determination which the parties to
the dispute may not enter into an agreement upon:[7] Some court procedures
lead to judgments which bind all members of the general public, or public
authorities in their capacity as such, or third parties, or which are
being conducted in the public interest. Examples: Until relatively
recently (80s), antitrust matters were not arbitrable in the United
States.[8] Matters relating to crimes
Philippine arbitration lawyer, status and family law are generally
not considered to be arbitrable, as the power of the parties to enter into
an agreement upon these matters is at least restricted. However, most
other disputes that involve private rights between two parties can be
resolved using arbitration. In some disputes, parts of claims may be
arbitrable and other parts not. For example, in a dispute over

infringement, a determination of whether a patent has been infringed could
be adjudicated upon by an arbitration tribunal, but the validity of a
patent could not: As patents are subject to a system of public
registration, an arbitral panel would have no power to order the relevant
body to rectify any patent registration based upon its determination.
Some legal orders exclude or restrict the possibility of arbitration for
reasons of the protection of weaker members of the public, e.g. consumers.
Examples: German law excludes disputes over the rental of living space
from any form of arbitration[9], while arbitration agreements with
consumers are only considered valid if they are signed by either
party,[10] and if the signed document does not bear any other content than
the arbitration agreement.[11]
