SMTD Law LLP managing partner Marilyn Klinger’s NASBP virtual seminar, “How Do We Resolve the Dispute? Arbitration/Mediation and the Traditional Bond Forms” will be held Tuesday, July 11 at 2:00 p.m. Eastern/11:00 a.m. Pacific.
Ms. Klinger will discuss arbitration and mediation requirements related to traditional bonds — AIA, ConsensusDocs, EJCDC and Federal (FAR) Standard Form 25 forms — when there is a claim against performance and/or payment bonds. In addition to examining the arbitration and mediation provisions of the traditional bond forms, Klinger, who serves on the NASBP Attorney Advisory Council, will discuss the ins and outs of arbitration enforcement, multiparty issues that can complicate arbitration, incorporation by reference issues, and pre- and post-contract termination.
