SUMMARY:Fall 2026 ADR Speaker Series: Against Overbroad Nondisclosures
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, October 7\, 2026 from 12:30-1:30pm (PT)\nAgainst Overbroad Nondisclosures\nGilat Bachar\, Associate Professor\, Temple University Beasley School of Law \nVia Zoom \n  \nSettlement NDAs routinely impose sweeping and often perpetual confidentiality obligations\, yet courts rarely scrutinize their breadth\, leaving many plaintiffs unable to discuss traumatic experiences even with trusted confidants and thereby exacerbating psychological harm. To address these costs\, I propose that courts recognize implied mandatory carve-outs for emotionally taxing events\, allowing limited disclosures to professionals and close confidants and recalibrating contract enforcement to better protect vulnerable parties’ well-being. \n  \nGilat Juli Bachar is an Associate Professor of Law at Temple University Beasley School of Law\, where she teaches and writes in the areas of legal ethics\, tort law\, dispute resolution\, and law and psychology. Her paper “Plaintiffs’ Lawyers’ Disclosure Duties” was the winner of the 2025 Warren E. Burger Prize. Bachar’s research combines theoretical analysis with empirical methods to explore how people perceive and make decisions about civil litigation and settlement\, and how civil justice institutions can balance private dispute resolution with the public values of transparency\, accountability\, and social welfare. Before joining Temple\, she was a Visiting Assistant Professor at Villanova School of Law\, a research fellow at the Stanford Center on the Legal Profession and a litigation fellow at the Center for Justice & Accountability in San Francisco. \n  \nRSVP \n  \nMore information on the Fall 2026 Speaker Series \n

SUMMARY:Fall 2026 ADR Speaker Series: Rethinking Active Listening in ADR
DESCRIPTION:  \nWednesday\, October 14\, 2026 from 12:30-1:30pm (PT)\nRethinking Active Listening in ADR\nNicolas Parra-Herrera\, Associate Professor\, Wagner/Holbrook Chair in Negotiation\, S.J. Quinney College of Law\, University of Utah \nIn Person – Deb Colloquium Room @ UC Law SF and Via Zoom \n  \nActive listening has become an overarching concept in ADR\, yet there is no precise discussion of its definition\, what it encompasses\, and how it has filtered into the field. It dissolves into a set of protocols\, communication techniques\, and rhetorical claims that fail to account for the limitations\, potentials\, and contingency of listening. In this talk\, we will analyze what the mandate to “active” listening means in ADR literature. We will show that this literature mixes active listening as a moral mandate\, a professional skill\, and a way of relating to others and oneself. In the second part\, we will show how the pervasive use of active listening discourse conceals its power to distribute the audible among the parties and forecloses other practices of listening in ADR. \n  \nRSVP \nMore information on the Fall 2026 ADR Speaker Series \n  \n

SUMMARY:Fall 2026 ADR Speaker Series - ISO Truth: Truth-Seeking and Relational Agency in the Aftermath of Gender-Based Violence
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, October 28\, 2026 from 12:30-1:30pm (PT)\nISO Truth: Truth-Seeking and Relational Agency in the Aftermath of Gender-Based Violence\nRachel J. Wechsler\, Associate Professor\, University of Missouri School of Law \nVia Zoom \nRSVP \n  \nGender-based violence survivors’ pursuit of truth is often complicated by systemic discounts to their credibility\, institutional resistance\, and\, particularly in recent years\, a post-truth epistemic environment. Despite these challenges\, survivors consistently exercise individual and collective agency in pursuit of truth in the aftermath of their victimization. I draw on transitional justice and relational agency theory to explore the contours and significance of truth-seeking in relation to gender-based violence\, both for survivors and for wider society. \n\n  \nRachel J. Wechsler is an Associate Professor and the Assistant Director of the Center for the Study of Dispute Resolution at the University of Missouri School of Law. She is also a Faculty Scholar at the University of Missouri’s Middleton Center for Race\, Citizenship\, and Justice and an affiliate faculty member in the School of Social Work and the Department of Sociology. Professor Wechsler researches gender-based violence at the intersection of Criminal Law\, Family Law\, Dispute Resolution\, and Human Rights. \n  \nMore information on the ADR Speaker Series

However\, starting around 2010\, Japanese law firms began opening offices in the United States\, where they not only met the legal needs of Japanese companies but also began handling the legal needs of U.S. companies in dealings with Japan. For this symposium\, we have invited speakers from the offices of three Japanese law firms established in the Bay Area\, Silicon Valley\, and Los Angeles to discuss opportunities and challenges of the California legal market from the perspective of Japanese law firms\, as well as their strategies. This is the first time this topic has been the focus of a symposium at an American law school\, making it a highly significant event. Furthermore\, this symposium will cultivate relationships between our school and these law firms and provide our students who are interested in Japanese law firms with an opportunity to concretely consider their own career paths.\nModerator\n \nSetsuo Miyazawa\nSenior Director Emeritus\, Center for East Asian Legal Studies (CEALS)\nProfessor Setsuo Miyazawa is a legal sociologist whose scholarship spans criminal justice\, legal ethics\, legal education\, corporate practice\, and East Asian law and society.
