Re: construction Arbitration Services
Posted by Worried Homeowner on 1/30/07

    I'm about to use CAS to mediate (binding arbitration) a dispute over a new
    contruction between Toll Brothers Builder and my family. Toll Brothers decided
    to keep my earnest money a wapping $43,000.00 by claiming that we're in
    default of the contract. They have CAS as the designated arbitrator and the
    Americam Arbitrator Association as a second choice in case CAS does not settle
    the problem. Someone please help me here. Can Toll brother just decide to get
    our money just like that? And how partial and non-builder-bias is the AAA?
