The national forum is designed to bring together experts in academia and the legal profession, as well as dispute avoidance and alternative dispute resolution techniques.
Featured speakers include William W. Brubaker of the Smithsonian Institute; James G. Slaughter Jr., president of the National Academy of Construction; James P. Groton and Robert A. Rubin, both past presidents of the American College of Construction Lawyers; and Thomas J. Stipanowich, president and CEO of the CPR Institute of Dispute Resolution.
The speakers will highlight the costs and benefits of using dispute resolution best practices on construction projects and explore ways to encourage project owners to eliminate or quickly resolve disputes.
