- How poorly drafted ADR clauses in employment contracts can derail mediations: a mediator’s perspective
- Is your ADR clause enforceable? The cautionary tale of Heller v. Uber Technologies Inc.
- Is confidential arbitration inappropriate for some employment issues? Why Google, Facebook, Uber and Microsoft have stopped requiring private arbitration of harassment claims in the U.S.
