Word origin

The word 'arbitrated' is derived from the Latin 'arbitrari', meaning 'to give judgment' or 'to consider'. It entered the English language in the late 14th century, initially used to describe the process of settling disputes through an appointed individual. This usage became more formalized in the context of legal practices in the 17th century, particularly as court systems recognized arbitration as a viable alternative to litigation. Over the years, the practice of arbitration has evolved, with various laws and regulations governing how arbitration is conducted in different jurisdictions, paving the way for its widespread acceptance in commercial and labor-related disputes.
