In labor and employment disputes, clarity and timing matter. The “Green Light / Red Light” presentation format offers advocates and arbitrators a structured way to test arguments, identify decision-points, and refine case strategy before entering the hearing room. At our 2nd Annual Joint NYC LERA / NAA Region 2 / AAA Meet the Arbitrators Event, participants will work through real scenarios in fast, interactive rounds that highlight what strengthens a case—and what weakens it. This format promotes sharper advocacy, more efficient hearings, and a clearer path to resolution. Join us November 5, 2025, 5:30–7:30 p.m., at the American Arbitration Association’s New York Regional Office. Complimentary light dinner. Reserve your seat: FREE registration required. #LaborRelations #Arbitration
