Protect your freelance revenue with our cutting edge-dispute resolution platform
As a freelancer, you know how difficult it can be to get paid on time. You also know there’s not a whole lot you can do when clients don’t pay. Collection agencies? They take up to 50% of what they recover. Getting a lawyer and taking your client to court for a single unpaid invoice? Not worth the time, money, or hassle.
When it comes to unpaid invoices, there just aren’t many options for freelancers.
Until now.

It’s all done online and there are no collection agencies or lawyers needed.

When you make a claim, you can demand that any fees and costs involved in the arbitration process be recovered, essentially shifting the costs of arbitration to the client.
With an arbitration clause in your contract and the weight of the law behind you, your clients will know to take your invoice policy seriously.
Brief’s online arbitration platform resolves claims in around 45 days, compared to 410 days with traditional litigation or arbitration. We also make the process up to 90% more cost-effective. You only pay when a dispute happens.
Binding arbitration depends on having a detailed terms of service contract that is relevant and fit for the purpose. Many freelancers don’t utilize terms of service contracts when they begin to work with a new client. With the cost of hiring a lawyer and suing in civil court if the client breaches the contract, it’s easy to see why not. But with Brief’s online arbitration platform, filing an arbitration claim is easy, and makes having terms of services contracts a must for freelancers.
An arbitration clause states that in case of default or dispute an arbitration platform that you and your client both agree on can be used to trigger a resolution process that is legally binding. When both parties sign the contract and agree, then the pathway to resolution is made simple, fast and effective.
