CONSUMER ARBITRATION

Credit card companies, medical services providers, cell phone companies, insurers, and employers turn to consumer arbitration instead of the courts to resolve disputes. Most credit card companies seek to collect delinquent debts through consumer arbitration, largely using one company, the National Arbitration Forum. Congress is concerned about this practice of mandatory binding arbitration and is considering legislation that would let consumers decide whether to use arbitration or the courts.
