Commercial arbitration in Georgia: clause review, claims or defences, evidence and planning for enforcement of an award.
Start with the arbitration agreement, scope of the dispute and selected rules. Article 8 requires writing and imposes an additional form requirement where an individual or administrative body is a party. Clause drafting, an existing proceeding and enforcement require different assessments.
The right route starts by assessing current law, facts, documents and deadlines together. This page provides a practical framework; an individual strategy is formed only after a confidential case assessment.
Procedure
Check the contract, signatory authority and arbitration clause
Identify the institution, rules, place, language and notice addresses
Organise the claim or defence, amount calculation and evidence chronology
Plan arbitrator selection, notices, hearings and document exchange
Assess compliance, enforcement and any grounds for setting aside separately

Risks
Typical scenario
A buyer has not paid an invoice and the contract refers disputes to arbitration. Prepare the clause, delivery evidence, payment history, demand and service records before assessing the claim, procedure and cost factors. This illustrative example does not predict an outcome.
FAQ
Answers are general and do not replace individual legal advice.
Send the contract and clause, a short chronology, claim calculation, key evidence and notices received. Include receipt dates for documents requiring a response.
Compare the institution's current rules and fee schedule, claim value, arbitrator count, translation, expert and representation needs. There is no single timetable or assured outcome for every dispute.
