Employment Law

Employment Contract
A few years ago, after a long and prosperous relationship, a company had a falling out amongst its top executives and as a result it lost some very essential employees and some very valuable clients. One of the key officers who we'll call Mr. Jones, was brought in and trained by the founder, who we'll call Mr. Smith. Smith's training of Jones was so effective that Jones soon became instrumental in helping to build the old company into a very lucrative one. After several years of working together Mr. Jones became dissatisfied with the company's progress and not reaching his very high financial expectations. Thus, Mr. Jones quit and opened a competing business which soon became very competitive with his old company managing in its growth to lure several of the old accounts to his new company. Mr. Jone's new company not only provided him with a greatly enhanced financial position but also offered him a variety of new challenges and business opportunities he never had access to before. Mr. Smith was irate. Not only had he trained Mr. Jones and taught him "everything he knew" but Jones also, in direct violation of his employment agreement, began competing with his old company. As a result Smith sued Jones to recover over $2,000,000 in lost business and, in addition to his claim for breach of contract, included, among other things, tortious interference with the company's business relationship, theft of trade secrets, and defamation.
Employment Litigation
What rules will govern the arbitration? Several organizations have promulgated comprehensive rules governing the conduct of arbitrations. For example, the American Arbitration Association (AAA) has rules for commercial arbitrations, construction cases, employment disputes, and other types of controversies. The International Chamber of Commerce (ICC), United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL), International Institute for Conflict Prevention and Resolution (CPR), International Centre for Dispute Resolution (ICDR) (which is a division of the (AAA), London Court of International Arbitration (LCIA), and, Judges Arbitration and Mediation Service (JAMS), all have promulgated rules for abritral proceedings. The arbitration clause should select one set of rules to govern cases to be submitted to arbitration under that contract.
