WHO WOULD BENEFIT FROM THIS PRESENTATION – Attorneys, parties and businesspeople interested in learning more about effective arbitration clause drafting and the elements that can provide the parties with greater control of the arbitration process.

It should be required for any new lawyer drafting arbitration clauses ( and older lawyers like me). Another Great AAA program to allow Neutrals to continue to hone their skills. Having heard numerous arbitrations over the last 30 years, I found Mr. Schwartz's presentation regarding Drafting Dispute Resolution Clauses to the point and so very relevant. ^ A link to this recorded webinar's supplemental material appears above at left.
