Arb-med, short for arbitration-mediation, is a hybrid dispute resolution process where an arbitrator first hears the case and makes a decision, which is then sealed. The parties are encouraged to mediate and reach a mutual agreement, with the sealed decision only being revealed if they fail to agree. This method combines elements of both arbitration and mediation, leveraging the pressure of a binding decision to encourage a negotiated settlement.
