  1. “recognized that the FAA creates a presumption of arbitrability' such that 'any doubts concerning the scope of arbitrable issues should be resolved in favor of arbitration.' " Bazemore v. Jefferson Capital Sys., LLC , 827 F.3d 1325 , 1329 (11th Cir. 2016) (quoting Dasher v. RBC Bank (USA) , 745 F.3d 1111 , 1115-16 (11th Cir. 2014) ). "Under the FAA, a written agreement to arbitrate is 'valid, irrevocable, and enforceable, save upon such grounds as exist at law or in equity for the revocation of any contract ...' Accordingly, the FAA requires a court to either stay or dismiss a lawsuit and to compel arbitration upon a showing that (a) the plaintiff entered into a written arbitration agreement that is enforceable 'under ordinary state-law' contract principles and (b) the claims before the court fall within the scope of that agreement.”
