As discrimination and other employment cases are more frequently arbitrated, it is important for practitioners to understand how proceedings in this forum differ from litigation in the courts. Attendees will learn about the enforceability of arbitration clauses, how discovery in arbitration has unique characteristics and how an arbitration award may be challenged or enforced. This program will discuss:
