Description:
Arbitration and mediation aren't just for litigators—and they're certainly not as mysterious as they may seem. Whether you practice family law, estate planning, employment, real estate, business law, or another area, chances are your clients will encounter situations where ADR can save time, money, and relationships.
Join AAA for an engaging discussion covering the fundamentals of alternative dispute resolution. Learn when ADR makes sense, how arbitration and mediation differ, where ADR clauses belong, and how these tools can benefit both you and your clients. Whether you're completely new to ADR or looking for a refresher, you'll leave with practical takeaways you can put to use immediately.
