Uniform Arbitration Act

The Uniform Arbitration Act was a United States act from 1955 which specified arbitration in the United [States law]. It was created by the National Conference of [Commissioners on Uniform State Laws]. The law is currently preempted in almost all contexts by the 1925 FAA.
The act was drafted as a model arbitration statute to allow each U.S. state to adopt a uniform law of arbitration, instead of having each state enact a unique arbitration statute. The act was updated by the Uniform [Law Commission] in the year 2000. The new act, called the "Revised Uniform Arbitration Act" has been adopted by eighteen states. Thirty-five states have adopted some version of the Uniform Arbitration Act.
