AAA Form AR PDF Details

The AAA Form AR, formally the New York Motor Vehicle No-Fault Insurance Law Arbitration Request Form, is used by claimants who choose arbitration to resolve insurance disputes outside of court. It requires complete details about all parties: the applicant, the insurance provider, and the specifics of the claim being disputed.

A wide range of disputes can be arbitrated using this form, including medical bills, other necessary expenses, loss of earnings, and death benefits. Expedited or priority arbitration is available for urgent cases. Before arbitration begins, the AAA encourages conciliation between parties to seek a voluntary settlement. For related arbitration documents, see the AAA subpoena form or the arbitration UM form.

Filing accuracy is critical: the arbitration outcome is binding and may only be appealed on very limited grounds under applicable law. Claims found frivolous or without merit may result in arbitration costs being imposed on the applicant. Ensure all supporting documentation is complete and attached before submission.

New York Motor Vehicle No-Fault Insurance Law Arbitration Request Form

If you wish to arbitrate your claim, please complete (print or type) all applicable sections of this form. Optional No-Fault Arbitration is final and binding except for the limited grounds for review set forth in the law and regulations. Upon receipt of this request, the American Arbitration Association will attempt to resolve the dispute by conciliation pursuant to Insurance Department Regulation 11NYCRR 65-4.2 (b) (2) (iii). If the dispute cannot be resolved by conciliation, your case will be forwarded for arbitration. For additional information please visit our website at: www.adr.org, and click on “New York No-Fault” in the right hand column.

Pursuant to Insurance Department Regulation 11NYCRR 65 – 4.2 (b) (3) (i), the applicant shall submit all supporting documentation with their request for arbitration. Submitted documentation must contain a table of contents and exhibits. The applicant must also simultaneously submit all documents to the insurer. Following this original submission of documents, any other documents submitted by the applicant other than bills or claims for ongoing benefits will be marked “LATE SUBMISSION” and will be admitted into the record at the sole discretion of the arbitrator.

Pursuant to Insurance Department Regulation 11NYCRR 65 – 4.5 (t) (1), the arbitrator may impose all administrative costs of arbitration to the applicant or apportion the administrative costs of arbitration between the parties if the arbitrator concludes that the applicant’s arbitration request was frivolous, was without factual or legal merit or was filed for the purpose of harassing the respondent.
