A Brave New World: Employment Arbitration Agreements are Now Enforceable in West Virginia

If your company operates in West Virginia, regardless of its size or number of employees, and it doesn't utilize arbitration agreements, you may be unnecessarily exposing your company to enhanced cost and the unpredictability of jury verdicts.

This in-depth presentation will explore the dramatic change in how courts in West Virginia view arbitration agreements and how the courts' willingness to enforce these agreements is dramatically impacting the litigation of employment claims. We will provide comprehensive practical advice about implementing enforceable arbitration agreements not only from our West Virginia shareholders, but also from Dallas shareholder Rob Friedman, a nationally recognized authority on arbitration agreements who successfully argued the Rent-A-Center West, Inc. v. Jackson case before the United States Supreme Court.
