#17:

How much time is justice worth? Arbitration and “useful playing time” in dispute resolution

In the Episode #17 of LEXplain, Fábio Loureiro discusses with Miguel Lorena Brito, Mariana da Cruz Gonçalves, and Guilherme Pina Cabral the specificities of arbitration in public law, consumer disputes, and civil and commercial matters, outlining the differences compared to the experience in state courts and highlighting the advantages for those who choose this dispute resolution method. The guests also leave behind some lasting suggestions for even greater procedural efficiency, better dissemination and promotion of arbitration, and even legislative interventions that favor the consensual resolution of contractual disputes before they become irreversibly contentious.
