UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. – Six arbitration experts from across the country joined the Penn State Law Arbitration Law Review’s annual symposium on February 24, 2021, to discuss the various ways in which the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the world of arbitration. Panelists explored a range of topics connected to arbitration law, including labor negotiations and disputes, financial regulation, Title IX, sports arbitration amidst a pandemic, and the efficacy of alternative dispute resolutions.
“The Arbitration Law Review editors have shown tremendous leadership in putting together this timely event and bringing in extraordinary panelists amid this year’s challenges,” said Hari M. Osofsky, dean of Penn State Law in University Park. “The symposium provided needed insights into how the important dispute resolution mechanism of arbitration has interacted with the COVID-19 and its forced pivots.”
Guest speakers included:
“Arbitration is one of the key mechanisms through which we work through business and legal disputes, and the landscape has dramatically changed due to the global pandemic,” said Ginger Snapp, editor-in-chief of the Arbitration Law Review. “I am thankful to all of our panelists for joining our 2021 symposium and sharing their expertise on these important topics.”
The Penn State Law Arbitration Law Review is a student-edited publication that covers domestic U.S. developments in arbitration and periodically addresses transborder developments.
