If you have not already seen this article on Channel 2 News, please be aware of a recent court decision concerning arbitration clauses in admission agreements.  Based on the outcome of this litigation the court deemed that arbitration clauses are not enforceable.  A lawsuit that was brought against a local nursing home concerning the enforceability of arbitration clauses was successfully awarded to the plaintiff allowing him to bring his negligence case directly to court.
