Disadvantages of Arbitration
- First is, Arbitral awards have no precedential value as that they cannot be relied on in subsequent proceedings
- Second is, Arbitration is characterized through the danger of miscarriage of the likelihood of justice particularly when the arbitrator is not a legal or certain expert
- Third is, Arbitrators exercise unregulated discretion and thus the danger of power of abuse
- Forth is, Arbitrators are more susceptible to manipulation the judges and the magistrates
- Fifth is, the fact that proceedings are conducted in private might raise suspicion.
