The American Arbitration Association has announced that it has drafted potential amendments to its Consumer Arbitration Rules and Employment Arbitration Rules, and is seeking comments on those proposed revisions. The AAA has posted the proposed new Consumer and Employment Rules, charts comparing the new Consumer and Employment language to the current language, as well as summaries of the extensive revisions (one for the Consumer Rules changes and one for the Employment Rules changes).
We are evaluating the proposed changes, which are numerous. The deadline to submit comments is February 28, 2025. We anticipate working with members of the business community to submit comments on the proposed changes.
