Arbitration
Mediation
Arbitration involves a neutral third party who listens to both sides and issues a decision called an award. It is a formal process and can be binding, similar to a court ruling. In Rhode Island, arbitration is required for certain cases valued at $50,000 or less.
Mediation is a cooperative process where a neutral facilitator helps both parties reach a voluntary agreement. It focuses on communication and compromise rather than a final ruling.
