In most cases, no. Arbitration and MTC strategies are based on consumer contracts that already include arbitration clauses. Our role is to prepare the correct documents and workflows. If your client’s situation escalates beyond document preparation (e.g., contested hearings), they may choose to consult an attorney, but most cases resolve before that point.

CRC/CDM are designed for disputes with credit bureaus. Once your client is sued, disputes are no longer effective. That’s where we step in — we integrate directly with CRC/CDM to catch clients at the lawsuit stage and prepare Arbitration/MTC packages so you can retain them instead of losing them.

A Motion to Compel Arbitration (often called an “MTC”) is a legal filing that asks the court to move your case out of the courtroom and into private arbitration. Many credit card and auto loan agreements include arbitration clauses. By using an MTC correctly, you can often force the creditor or collection agency to fight in arbitration instead of court — which is usually more costly and time-consuming for them.

Arbitration is a private process for resolving disputes outside of court. For consumers, it can level the playing field because large creditors often find arbitration more expensive and less convenient than state court. Using arbitration as a strategy can sometimes encourage better outcomes for consumers facing collection lawsuits.
