On May 24, 2018, Dana Kravetz was quoted in the SHRM article, “What Does High Court’s Arbitration Ruling Mean for California?” In the piece, Mr. Kravetz comments on the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling in Epic Systems Corp. v Lewis, which confirmed the enforceability of class action waivers in employment arbitration agreements. Among other things, he made clear that despite the viability of class action waiver provisions, the language of arbitration agreements will continue to be heavily scrutinized and challenged in the courts by employees.
