Part 1: Mock Arbitration - "So you think your case is a sure winner?"
Practical problems routinely arise throughout the construction process. And it's not uncommon for a seemingly small issue to evolve into a large problem during arbitration.
During this program, you'll witness how "small issues" play out in a real arbitration. You'll observe two top construction litigators tackle real life construction issues, cross-examine the owner, contractor, and experts, and dissect construction documents under the watch of an arbitrator. Then judge the parties' claims as you see fit.
Part 2: Roundtable Discussions
- Contractors' obligations under the Michigan Builders Trust Fund
- Construction liens
- Top 10 contract clauses
- Indemnification
- Employment law
- Alternative dispute resolution provisions in construction contracts.
