Arbitration
KU Law Professor Stephen Ware
I began focusing on arbitration law in the early 1990’s, shortly after becoming a lawyer. My early scholarship on arbitration was written while I was on the faculty of Samford University’s Cumberland School of Law. At KU Law, I've continued writing on arbitration, including several books:
- a casebook (Foundation Press University Casebook Series, 4th ed. 2020) (with Alan Scott Rau);
- a treatise Principles of Arbitration Law (West Concise Hornbook Series, 2d ed. 2023) (with Ariana Levinson).
- and a co-authored Cambridge University Press book on reforming the Federal Arbitration Act.
In addition, I've published dozens of law review articles about arbitration, and have testified on arbitration before the United States Senate (video of Senate testimony) and House of Representatives (news release regarding congressional testimony) and, as an expert witness, in court.
I blog about ADR generally and Arbitration specifically.
I've taught Arbitration as a standalone course and as part of a survey Alternative Dispute Resolution course, Law 860
KU Law’s Course Description for Law 872, Arbitration, is:
This survey of arbitration law and practice considers major types of arbitration in the United States—such as commercial (including securities and trade associations), labor, employment, consumer, insurance, medical, and religious—as well as important types of international arbitration, such as commercial, maritime, investment, and sports.
