Arbitration Agreements Gone Bad: How to Avoid Arbitration Agreement Pitfalls

ACC-Socal Chapter's ACCess Program Sponsored by Seyfarth Shaw LLP

This presentation will review recent law on arbitration agreements and will explore how to avoid common drafting errors that void the agreements or eradicate important benefits such as class action waivers.

We will provide the background of recent decisions surrounding hot-button arbitration issues, such as arbitrability, class action waivers, and fairness. We will review samples of arbitration agreements that failed to achieve the desired effect, whether a class action waiver or arbitration of limited issues. The presentation will also address drafting or process errors that can invalidate arbitration agreements.
