Tracy A. Armstrong to Speak at Best Practices for a Successful Employment Arbitration Webinar

Shareholder Tracy A. Armstrong will speak at the upcoming webinar, “Best Practices for a Successful Employment Arbitration” on October 30th.

Employers often turn to arbitration agreements to resolve disputes more quickly and cost-effectively than traditional litigation. However, while courts frequently uphold these agreements, they also continue to strike them down for issues such as lack of consent, inadequate notice, or failure to properly disclose the waiver of jury trial rights. In addition, new laws and regulations at both the state and federal levels continue to shape this evolving area of law.

This seminar will provide attorneys and practitioners with valuable insights into the latest case law, strategies for drafting and challenging arbitration agreements, and ethical considerations in arbitration.

Webinar topics include:

• Overview of FAA/NJ Arbitration Act

• Recent SCOTUS decisions

• Ending Forced Arbitration of Sexual Assault and Sexual Harassment Act

• Confidentiality and nondisclosure provisions under the Speak Out Act and N.J.S.A. 10:5-12.8 (Senate Bill 5.121)

• Post-Atalese developments

• Class action and multiparty arbitration

• Discovery and dispositive motion practice in arbitration

• Best practices for effective hearings

• Pro se litigants in arbitration
