What is the National Court of Arbitration?
The National Court of Arbitration passes judgements that have a legal force equal to those passed by common courts. Court of Arbitrations settles disputes in an arbitrary and definitive manner. An arbitrator, having evaluated the evidence, passes a judgement that establishes a new legal situation between the parties to a litigation. The NCoA can also act as an intermediary in negotiating a settlement.
How to file a lawsuit with the NCoA?

What is the difference between arbitration and mediation?
Arbitration is an authoritative method of solving disputes. The court passes a judgement on the basis of the collected evidence. The judgement unambiguously settles the dispute in favour of one of the parties. Mediation, on the other hand, is an amicable settlement of a dispute with participation of a mediator who is supposed to work out a solution that would be satisfying for both parties. In this case, the parties are trying to reach a mutual understanding. The mediator facilitates communication between them and creates a space for constructive discussion. However, the mediator does not impose an authoritative solution upon the parties. This is the main difference between mediation and arbitration.

Arbitration is the best recognized and the most highly valued method of solving disputes across the globe. Its chief advantages are the speed of proceedings, highly-qualified arbitrators and considerable time and money saving. Polish entrepreneurs start appreciating the benefits of arbitration proceedings as an alternative to proceedings before common courts.
It should be emphasized that the total costs of settling a dispute before the National Court of Arbitration is considerably lower than in case of a common court. In addition, the speed of proceedings and the possibility of predicting the date the judgement will be pronounced by the NCoA compensate for the litigation costs incurred by the parties. In case of state courts, it is not possible to predict when the judgement will be passed.
