ADR / Arbitration / Mediation

For the latest news, stories, and information on alternative dispute resolution (ADR), arbitration meetings, and court-ordered mediation between parties, the National Law Review provides readers with a source of information online. Biding adversarial proceedings and non-binding voluntary procedures, which are heard in front of a neutral third party, are discussed under the National Law Review’s ADR coverage and rules and regulations pertaining to this source of conflict resolution are analyzed by the team of legal experts at the National Law Review.

Coverage includes the examination of different arbitration agreement rulings, at the federal and state level. Arbitration agreements, both in employment and otherwise, and arbitrator awards, in cases relating to business organizations and disputes, are also covered on the site. Arbitration related to sexual harassment lawsuits in the workplace are extremely common today; readers can learn about binding and non-binding terms, and how employees can defeat these arbitration clauses when filing a lawsuit against their company or C-level executive in their organization, on the National Law Review site. Compulsory arbitration clauses in agreements relating to major corporations, shareholder agreements, or multinational agreements, are covered on the National Law Review. These agreements, from industries including employment disputes, consumer class action lawsuits, and franchise agreements, are among the different topics, news, and stories, which visitors will read about on the National Law Review website.

Litigation which arises out of binding arbitration agreements in the workplace, clauses which parties can’t agree upon when creating a new contract, or dealings between companies in different jurisdictions which go awry, are among the different topics which the National Law Review covers, in relation to ADR and arbitration law. Visitors will read stories that arise in the United States, across borders, and between multinational organizations, when visiting the National Law Review, for coverage on this area of law.
