New Era ADR

We’re grateful to Law360 for publishing a column this week by New Era ADR Founder and Chairman Collin Williams, discussing an important case that significantly impacts businesses and workers involved in foreign or interstate commerce. “In March, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit issued its opinion in Ortiz v. XPO Logistics, Randstad Inhouse Services, LLC. As the case makes its way through the appeals process — and hopefully to the U.S. Supreme Court — it has the potential to clarify an age-old question about whether workers involved in foreign or interstate commerce are exempt from the Federal Arbitration Act,” Collin explains. There is a significant split among the Circuit Courts on this issue and the creation of a standardized test by the Supreme Court could alleviate a lot of the confusion.

Come listen to our founder and chairman Collin Williams talk to Bobby Hacker and the Sports Lawyers Association about alternative dispute resolution and how it can help regular businesses, sports teams and sports organizations. Also learn how New Era ADR is changing the game in the ADR world by revolutionizing the technology and the processes, bringing it into the 21st century. Register and listen this afternoon at 4:30CT/3:30MT. #sportslaw #sportslawyers #ADR #arbitration #mediation

We appreciate the opportunity that our Co-Founder and General Counsel, Shane William Mulrooney, had to contribute to the Daily Journal Corporation recently. In the article, “Shaping Tomorrow’s Dispute Resolution,” Shane addresses the “evolving landscape of alternative dispute resolution and the traditional court system,” both with their merits and challenges. He distinguishes the high-stakes disputes that benefit from their day in court versus those routine disputes where ADR can provide a more efficient path to resolution. In looking at the future of ADR, Shane writes, “In navigating the complexities of dispute resolution, it is essential to consider the evolving nature of ADR processes. Modern options prioritize speed and cost efficiency, making them well-suited for routine disputes. The overarching goal is to lower the temperature of litigation and foster constructive resolutions.”   Thank you to the Daily Journal for publishing this important look at ADR!
