Nothing you are discussing in arbitration is really any different than it would have been in attorney driven normal proceedings. Just a lot less opportunity to lay smoke screens, delays and legal stalls to detract from the points you needed addressed all along.

It is up to you however to be prepared.

It is faster for you to do this and a tactic that he can take advantage of to get this over with before all of this gets discussed openly in court proceedings.

Good luck. You're doing great. ( I must say he is making things way easier for you by his ongoing actions). :-)
