Are Arbitration Agreements enforceable?
A. Sometimes an employer requires an employee to sign an agreement that the employee will not sue in court, but that if there is any dispute, it must be resolved through arbitration. These agreements usually are enforceable, depending primarily on the specific provisions of the agreement. If you have signed such an agreement, you have not lost your right to seek compensation for your damages. However, you may not be able to bring your case before a jury.
