Arbitration

Arbitration hearing

With over 35 years of legal experience, Karimu F. Hill-Harvey serves as a FINRA and AAA Arbitrator, providing authoritative, efficient, and binding dispute resolution as an alternative to traditional litigation.

Arbitration Philosophy

Arbitration is a private, binding form of dispute resolution in which the parties present their case to a neutral arbitrator who renders a final decision. As a FINRA and AAA Arbitrator, I bring deep legal expertise and judicial temperament to every proceeding, ensuring a fair, thorough, and efficient process for all parties.

Types of Arbitration

FINRA Arbitration

Serving as a FINRA arbitrator for securities industry disputes between investors and broker-dealers, as well as intra-industry disputes between member firms and their associated persons.

AAA Arbitration

Serving as an American Arbitration Association (AAA) arbitrator for commercial, construction, employment, and other civil disputes under AAA rules and procedures.

Commercial Arbitration

Resolving complex business and commercial disputes efficiently and confidentially, with the finality and enforceability of a binding arbitration award.

Employment Arbitration

Adjudicating workplace disputes including wrongful termination, discrimination, wage and hour claims, and other employment-related matters.

Benefits of Arbitration

Binding & Final

Arbitration awards are binding and enforceable, providing finality and certainty for all parties.

Private & Confidential

Proceedings and awards remain private, protecting sensitive business and personal information.

Expert Decision-Maker

Parties benefit from an arbitrator with deep legal expertise rather than a generalist judge or jury.

Faster Than Litigation

Arbitration typically resolves disputes far more quickly than the court system.

Flexible Scheduling

Hearings can be scheduled at the convenience of the parties, avoiding court calendar delays.

Cost-Effective

Reduced discovery, streamlined procedures, and faster resolution lower the overall cost of dispute resolution.
