The Ninth Circuit has recently released a decision on a case concerning employment arbitration agreements that may be instructive to many employers. In Ronderos v. USF Reddaway, Inc., Court ruled that an employment arbitration agreement was void because it was “unconscionable,” a legal term. This finding was based on many factors, including that the employee was required to sign the pre-printed arbitration agreement before he was even offered the job, and that many of the agreement’s terms favored the employer over the employee. This case demonstrates how complicated it can be to draft an employment arbitration agreement that will be enforceable, should a claim arise. Employers who are interested in using an arbitration agreement should consult with their counsel to ensure that the agreement is drafted in compliance with California law.

"The judicial branch of government, headed by the Florida Supreme Court, is responsible for implementing and enforcing the rules that regulate the professional conduct of lawyers. The Florida Bar, as an arm of the court, is responsible for investigating and prosecuting lawyers who are alleged to have violated the rules of professional conduct, and the court ultimately determines what discipline is warranted when rule violations have been established." If you've ever wondered about Florida's discipline system for lawyers, or if you need a refresher on the process, check out this comprehensive article in The Florida Bar Journal.
