May ACC CLE: ADR Clauses That Actually Work: What In-House Counsel Need to Know

You are invited to attend our May CLE- in-person at Paesanos Lincoln Heights or via Zoom. Our friends at JAMS are bringing us a presentation entitled ''ADR Clauses That Actually Work: What In-House Counsel Need to Know".

This CLE will move beyond theory and focus on helping in-house counsel evaluate and improve their existing ADR clauses. Using real-world risks and examples, the session will highlight how clause design directly impacts cost, efficiency and outcomes when disputes arise.

Key Topics Include:

• Why ADR clauses often fail to protect business interests
• The growing impact of mass arbitrations and cost exposure
• Common drafting pitfalls in legacy or “boilerplate” clauses
• Key components of an effective ADR clause: 
  • Scope of disputes
  • Process design (negotiation, mediation, arbitration)
  • Provider selection and rules
  • Arbitrator selection and qualifications
  • Cost allocation and discovery limits
• JAMS Clause Workbook

Please feel free to pass this invitation on to other individuals within in your organization who would like to learn more about this topic!
