75 Minutes

Under many arbitration statutes, the arbitrator can issue subpoenas either at the request of a party or independently. There are, however, numerous challenges, frustrations, as well as strategies for securing pre-hearing discovery in arbitration from non-party witnesses and non-party attendance at final evidentiary hearings.

During this 75-minute recorded webinar, a pair of experienced arbitrators provide a substantive examination of the current trends, successful approaches and strategies that parties and arbitrators have employed to compel non-party discovery and hearing attendance. They also look at the roadblocks that commonly frustrate such efforts.  

Areas covered include—

• a review of current federal law;
• representative court cases;
• anecdotal examples of creative approaches to non-party discovery and hearing attendance through arbitrator subpoenas.

If you want to increase your knowledge of the reach of arbitral subpoenas and be better equipped to handle the real-world ramifications of efforts to compel non-party discovery and hearing attendance, you should not miss this webinar.

What others are saying about this presentation...

This is the best treatment of this subject I have ever heard.

The subject matter was presented from attorneys for parties, arbitrators, and non-party witness view points.

AAA sets the bar for training of neutrals and advocates in arbitration. I am never disappointed  at the level of professionalism at AAA training programs.

Learned information and issues about Arbitrator subpoenas that I did not know. Well done.

Well worth the investment for both arbitrators and litigators.
