Arbitration in Italy: how to easily resolve legal cases without
the court
What is arbitration in Italy and in which cases should it be
used?
The arbitration in Italy, governed by the code of civil
procedure, is part of the Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR)
procedures and is an alternative method of resolving disputes, of
civil and commercial nature, which exempts the parties from
applying to the Court.
The arbitration proceeding assigns to the role of the
arbitrator, after having examined the dispute, the task to
pronounce the so-called arbitration award or to
give the most appropriate resolution to the dispute.
The arbitration award produces effect similar to that of the
sentence.
