Florida law at a glance
- Arbitration agreements are generally enforceable under the Revised Florida Arbitration Code (Chapter 682, Florida Statutes) and the Federal Arbitration Act.
- Communications in mediation are generally confidential and privileged under Florida’s Mediation Confidentiality and Privilege Act (sections 44.401 to 44.406).
- Courts can vacate an arbitration award only on narrow grounds. The arbitration hearing is usually the decisive event.
