- Issues that construction lawyers need to consider in order to draft pre-dispute mediation and arbitration clauses that are advantageous to their clients (e.g. whether to use a neutral service provider such as the American Arbitration Association, whether to provide for mediation as a condition precedent to arbitration, whether all disputes will go to arbitration, whether discovery will be allowed, how arbitrators will be selected, will any rules of evidence apply, will the award be final, etc.)
