Page Opines On Mandatory Arbitration Clauses
Senior partner Boyd Page authored an article in the Spring 2011 issue of the Securities Litigation Journalentitled “Should the SEC Exercise Its Authority under Dodd-Frank to Prohibit Mandatory Arbitration Clauses?” Page, a co-chair of the ABA Securities Arbitration subcommittee, concluded that the SEC should return to the position it held before Shearson/American Express v. McMahon, 482 U.S. 220 (1987), and prohibit pre-dispute mandatory arbitration agreements.
