    — Great, you've got your arbitration clause, but now what? —

    Three important tips when updating your agreement with the Brief arbitration clause: 

    • 1. Replace any dispute resolution clause you may have in your agreement;
    • 2. Replace any venue and jurisdiction clause you may have in your agreement
    • 3. Make certain you have a section for you to choose the State law that you want to apply to the agreement.

    With your Brief arbitration clause, you now have your venue: Brief’s Online Platform. You’ll have your jurisdiction: All disputes arising from the Agreement will be decided exclusively by Brief, and lastly, you’ll have your choice of law to be applied.

    Ok! Thanks
