ArbitrationIntel — For Defrauded Consumers

An arbitration attorney can still fight for you — even with a forced-arbitration clause.

If the fine print in your contract routes disputes to arbitration instead of court, you still have a case. You just need an attorney who has actually argued one in that setting. Tell us what happened and we'll match you with one, free to check.

I. Attorney vs. Arbitration Attorney

Why it matters that your attorney has actually done this before.

Arbitration isn't a smaller version of a courtroom trial — it's a different process, with its own rules. There's usually no jury. A private arbitrator, not a judge, decides the outcome. The hearing is run by an organization like the AAA or JAMS, on a much faster timeline than a lawsuit. An arbitration attorney has built cases in that exact setting; a general-practice attorney may be arguing it for the first time on yours.

II. How It Works

Three steps, and none of them require you to know the law.

I

Tell Us What Happened

Answer a few plain questions about what the company did. No forms, no legal jargon.

II

We Check Your Claim

If it holds up, we match you with an arbitration attorney who handles cases like yours.

III

A Firm Fights For You

The attorney takes it from there. In most cases, you pay nothing unless the case succeeds.

III. Who Handles Your Case

Vetted attorneys, matched to the case you actually have.

ArbitrationIntel isn't a law firm — we're the marketplace that connects you to one. Attorneys on our panel handle consumer fraud, broker and investment disputes, employment arbitration, and business contract disputes, among others. Every firm is vetted before it ever sees a claimant, and you decide whether to move forward once you're matched.

IV. Questions People Ask First

The questions you're already asking.

What does an arbitration attorney do differently from a regular attorney?

They build and argue cases in front of a private arbitrator instead of a courtroom judge and jury, under rules set by an arbitration provider like the AAA or JAMS. It's a different skill from courtroom litigation, and it's what these attorneys handle every day.

Do I have to pay anything upfront?

No. Checking your claim is free. In most cases, you pay nothing unless your case succeeds — the attorney's fee comes out of your recovery, not your pocket. Fee terms are set by the participating firm and can vary by state.

Is ArbitrationIntel a law firm?

No. We're a marketplace that connects you with independent, licensed arbitration attorneys. We don't provide legal advice, and any case is handled by the firm you're matched with.

I already signed a contract with a forced-arbitration clause — can an attorney still help?

Usually, yes. A forced-arbitration clause changes where your case is heard, not whether you have one. An arbitration attorney can still bring your claim; it's just filed with an arbitration provider instead of a court.

How is arbitration different from going to court?

Arbitration is generally private, faster, and decided by a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge and jury. It follows the rules of an arbitration provider rather than the court system, but the goal is the same — resolving your dispute and, if you're owed money, recovering it.

V. Check Your Claim

See if you have a claim. It takes about two minutes.

Tell us what happened. If it looks like a fit, we'll match you with an arbitration attorney who reviews it — no cost to check, and in most cases no cost to start.

By submitting, you agree we may contact you about your claim. This does not create an attorney-client relationship, and submitting a claim does not guarantee a firm will take your case.
