Both you andRoss Johnston Ministries acknowledge that sincere efforts for informal dispute resolution often lead to swift, economical, and mutually beneficial resolutions. Therefore, before either party demands arbitration against the other, a good-faith effort will be made to engage in informal discussions. These discussions can occur via telephone or video conference and aim to resolve any claim covered by this mutual Arbitration Agreement. If you are legally represented, your counsel may participate, but you are also required to fully engage. The party initiating the claim must formally inform the other party in writing about their intent to commence an informal dispute resolution conference. This conference should take place within 60 days of the receiving party's notice, unless both parties agree to an extension. You can notify Ross Johnston Ministries of your intention to initiate an informal dispute resolution conference by emailing [email protected] , providing your username, associated email address, and a description of your claim. The period between the notice and the informal dispute resolution conference can be used to attempt to resolve the initiating party's claims. This informal conference is a prerequisite before initiating arbitration. The statute of limitations and any fee deadlines will be paused while the parties engage in the informal dispute resolution process mandated by this paragraph.
This Arbitration Agreement adheres to the Federal Arbitration Act in all aspects. To initiate arbitration, you need to send a letter outlining your claim and arbitration request to our registered agent at 99 Nottingham Road, Ramsey, NJ, 07446. The arbitration will be administered by JAMS in accordance with its rules and the terms of this Agreement. Disputes involving claims and counterclaims below $250,000 (excluding legal fees and interest) will follow JAMS's Streamlined Arbitration Rules (available at http://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/), while all other claims will follow JAMS's Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures (available at http://www.jamsadr.com/rules-comprehensive-arbitration/). JAMS's rules can also be found at www.jamsadr.com or by calling 800-352-5267. Filing, administration, and arbitration fees will be determined by JAMS's rules. If you are unable to afford JAMS's fees and cannot secure a fee waiver, we will cover these fees for you. Additionally, we will reimburse these fees for claims with a controversy value under $10,000. If JAMS is unavailable for arbitration, an alternative arbitral forum will be selected. The arbitration can be conducted via telephone, video conference, written submissions, or in-person at a location mutually agreed upon, including your residence or another suitable location.
The arbitrator, rather than any federal, state, or local court or agency, holds exclusive authority to resolve disputes concerning the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this Arbitration Agreement. This includes claims that any part of this Agreement is void or voidable.

The arbitrator will provide a written statement of decision detailing the essential findings and conclusions on which any award is based.
