Arbitration Agreement
(Mutual Agreement to Arbitrate Employment-Related Disputes) (OK)

Summary

This template is an arbitration agreement for a mutual agreement to arbitrate employment-related disputes for use in Oklahoma that features guidance for private employers in Oklahoma to withstand challenges to arbitrability. This template includes practical guidance, drafting notes, and alternate and optional clauses. This template contemplates using the American Arbitration Association as the arbitral organization, but parties can choose to use other organizations as well. It differs from the non-jurisdictional Arbitration Agreement (Mutual Agreement to Arbitrate Employment-Related Disputes) as it has been modified to incorporate Oklahoma law.
