Dispute Resolution Clause

A Dispute Resolution Clause is a provision in a debt settlement agreement that outlines the process for resolving any disputes or conflicts that may arise between the debtor and the creditor or debt settlement company. The clause may specify the method of dispute resolution, such as mediation or arbitration, the venue and jurisdiction for any legal proceedings, the allocation of costs and fees, and the binding nature of any decisions or awards. The purpose of this clause is to provide a clear and agreed-upon framework for handling disputes and to avoid the time, expense, and uncertainty of litigation in court.
