Summary

The Texas Supreme Court held that the arbitration provision in the attorney‑client employment contract is enforceable because the client failed to prove it was substantively unconscionable, contrary to public policy, or illusory, and therefore reversed the Court of Appeals and remanded for the trial court to order arbitration. Justice Guzman filed a concurring opinion urging clearer ethical rules for attorneys.
