I signed an Employment at-will contract, which was created under our American jurisdiction, but I had to sing it in an another country. The question is related with the uncertain problems that I could have in the future. There is contractual term which indicates that in the case of any dispute or claim the parties shall be subject to an arbitration. But, it indicates that it shall be done in the country Where I signed the contract. I want to know if I have any problem related with this contract, shall I be come forward to the Mexican jurisdiction, under the Mexican law? Which legal system will be applied to these case? Does the fact that I have signed in Mexico, directly affects my rights or the contract per se? Finally, I need to say that I worked in American soil, but I remain puzzled, thank you for your time.
If and when the contract is ever raised in litigation (or arbitration), be sure to make your attorney aware of it. I don't know what the contract says, but "employment at will" is the law just about everywhere in the U.S. anyway.
