Benefits:

A growing majority of commercial, consumer, and business contacts today require mandatory arbitration to adjudicate disputes. This has created a lucrative practice for counsel fluent in this thriving area of the law. Arbitration presents an efficient, speedy, private, and simplified manner to resolve civil lawsuits, all while allowing parties to select those who will resolve their claims. At the same time, some parties find arbitration to be a disadvantage due to the hourly fees for arbitrators & neutrals, lack of juries, and non-uniform procedures and rules. There has been a tremendous need for attorneys to best understand the most effective legal arguments, tools, and means to escape from arbitrations, as well as to enforce arbitral agreements. This seminar provides an overview of drafting enforceable arbitral agreements, avoiding arbitration, litigating arbitrability, executing on arbitral awards, and mitigating mandatory dispute resolution clauses. The nationally recognized seminar faculty will discuss best practices, the latest case law, effective arguments, and successful legal methods to best advantage clients. Registration includes online access to written course and reference materials that serve as a helpful guide to the numerous topics and techniques discussed in the program.
