Employment Arbitrations

The presentation will focus on the state of arbitration in California, particularly the enforceability of mandatory arbitration agreements and the litigation surrounding which matters can be compelled to arbitration and which claims cannot be compelled.  We will discuss class action wavers, PAGA – Viking River Cruise, AB 51, the Ending Forced Arbitration of Sexual Assault and Sexual Harassment Act of 2021, and CCP §§ 1281.97-1281.99 concerning arbitration fees and costs.
