From Strategy to Advocacy: Understanding the Framework – Theoretical Foundations of Arbitration

Winning an arbitration case begins long before the hearing—through effective strategy. Stephanie Reed Traband joins a panel of female arbitrators discussing the “Theoretical Foundations of Arbitration” hosted by the American Arbitration Association and Miami-Dade Chapter Florida Association for Women Lawyers (MDFAWL). This virtual program explores the theoretical underpinnings of arbitration and how those concepts inform real-world litigation strategy. As the first installment in a multi-part series, this session lays the foundation for later workshops focused on arbitration writing and oral advocacy. It provides insight into how arbitration frameworks shape case strategy, guide decision-making, and inform persuasive advocacy from the earliest stages of a dispute.
