A: To initiate an arbitration action against your condominium building, you should first review your condominium association's bylaws and any relevant contracts to identify the specific arbitration procedure that you are required to follow. These documents often outline the process for initiating arbitration, including any notice requirements and the method for selecting an arbitrator.

After you've familiarized yourself with these procedures, send a formal notice to the condominium association stating your intent to arbitrate and detailing the issues in dispute. You may then need to select an arbitrator from a provided list or through a service like the American Arbitration Association, depending on the rules set forth in your governing documents.

Ensure that you adhere strictly to the timelines and procedures specified to avoid any procedural dismissals. If necessary, engage legal counsel experienced in arbitration to guide you through the process and represent your interests effectively.
