Every decade or so, a new area becomes the hot topic in employment law. In the 1960s the focus was on race, in the 1970s on sex, in the 1980s on age, and in the 1990s on harassment and disabilities.

Runaway jury verdicts are no longer just fodder for works of fiction, and the risk of a runaway verdict in an employment case has increased steadily as juries are punishing deep-pocket corporations with more regularity. If a company is not protected by an arbitration clause, or a jury waiver within an employment agreement or application, there still are important steps it can take to limit exposure at trial, according to attorneys Steven I. Adler and Damon T. Kamvosoulis.
