For our Existing and Potential Co-Counsel

If you have a civil case in North Carolina, especially if you are about to file or defend against a new one, you will want to know about some critical changes to the non-binding arbitration statutes.

The changes have left the law of court-ordered arbitration in North Carolina somewhat murky. To try to help clarify things, we have outlined the key changes below and also provided a free download of a Word version of one new arbitration waiver form.
