Self-representation
Are You Self-Represented?
In arbitration, you don’t have to have a lawyer represent you (unless state law requires it), but it’s important to know that arbitration is a final and binding process that can affect your rights. So, if you are considering representing yourself, it’s a good idea to talk to a lawyer. If you do decide to go through arbitration without a lawyer, the AAA has resources to help you.
