(New Haven, CT) Patrick Clendenen will bring his extensive litigation experience in business and fiduciary disputes to an upcoming Continuing Legal Education (CLE) webinar “Drafting Arbitration Agreements in Business Contracts.” The American Bar Association organized the event, set for May 29. He and another litigator will join an arbitrator to share their experiences and offer best practices for avoiding unenforceable arbitration clauses and everything that comes with them. Clendenen says this is an invaluable resource for business lawyers.
“We will lay out the key considerations to drafting and negotiating arbitration agreements from the perspective of an arbitrator and two litigators. Lawyers will learn about the various ADR clause options and walk away with the tools they need to prepare for prospective disputes under the agreements they are drafting and negotiating.”
