Overview: When disputes arise between parties to commercial real estate sales or lease transactions and negotiation does not resolve the conflicts, the opposing parties often consider filing civil lawsuits to resolve the disputes. Unfortunately, lawsuits can be expensive and time-consuming, and generally are not effective at preserving working relationships. Parties to commercial real property transactions can resolve disputes outside of court and do not need to resort to litigation. Two of the more common tools used in commercial real estate dispute resolution are mediation and arbitration. This paper focuses on common disputes that can arise in commercial real estate sales and lease transactions, outlines the potential benefits of including mediation and arbitration clauses in commercial property contracts, and provides guidance for drafting and implementing mediation and arbitration agreements.
