Announcing The Sixth Annual MLF 50

For business development to succeed, a sound marketing strategy is essential. With that backdrop, this year's MLF 50 will be all about the intersection of marketing and business development with most of the emphasis placed on the strategies firms are using to keep their clients and expand their businesses. And so it is once again time to starting thinking about submissions for consideration to earn a spot on the coveted MLF 50.

Risks of “Baseball Arbitration” in Resolving Real Estate Disputes Image

“Baseball arbitration” refers to the process used in Major League Baseball in which if an eligible player's representative and the club ownership cannot reach a compensation agreement through negotiation, each party enters a final submission and during a formal hearing each side — player and management — presents its case and then the designated panel of arbitrators chooses one of the salary bids with no other result being allowed. This method has become increasingly popular even beyond the sport of baseball.
