In this episode, we delve into the role of arbitration in resolving disputes in UK insurance law. Arbitration serves as a private, structured alternative to litigation, offering policyholders and insurers a way to resolve claims-related conflicts efficiently. We examine the common arbitration clauses found in insurance contracts, the processes involved, and the advantages of arbitration, such as confidentiality and speed. The episode also explores the Arbitration Act 1996, which governs arbitration procedures, and discusses potential challenges, such as enforcement issues and limited grounds for appeal. With case examples, this episode sheds light on how arbitration functions as a pivotal mechanism for dispute resolution within the UK insurance market.
