Speaker, "From Conflict to Consensus: Arbitrations in Transactions and Litigation," ACC Southern California

 
Speaking Engagements

Mhare Mouradian and Remy Fesquet will present, "From Conflict to Consensus: Arbitrations in Transactions and Litigation," at the Association of Corporate Counsel Southern California on Monday, December 16, 2024.

Arbitration clauses frequently remain an afterthought, often overlooked in the construction of high-stakes agreements. Commonly, standard provisions are inserted into contracts, potentially binding parties to unfavorable outcomes. Given the thousands of commercial arbitrations filed annually, with millions of dollars often at stake, it is prudent to evaluate these clauses when drafting agreements carefully. This includes deciding whether to opt for arbitration or to retain the possibility of litigation. Whether your organization favors arbitration or litigation, we invite you to explore key drafting strategies to mitigate the related risk within your transactions effectively.

In this seminar, we will:

  • Examine prevailing arbitration trends and assess their respective advantages and disadvantages
  • Analyze types of disputes where arbitration presents a viable solution
  • Compare the arbitration process with traditional litigation measures
  • Enhance your understanding of the benefits and drawbacks associated with each dispute resolution mechanism
  • Offer drafting techniques to refine standard provisions, thereby granting you greater control
