On Wed. April 20, W.V. attorney Laurie McKowen spoke to the ADR Society about arbitration. The focus of Ms. McKowen's talk was on the increased trend towards arbitration, as well as attorneys's reactions and attitudes towards this trend. Supported by empirical data gathered from a recent state survey, Ms. McKowen outlined some of the issues associated with arbitration (as opposed to litigation or mediation). Several students stayed after the talk to discuss the topic in more depth.
The WVU ADR Society thanks Ms. McKowen for coming out to talk to us as well as her ongoing support of the ADR Society's efforts in the Magistrate Court Mediation Program!
