OPINION
IKUTA, Circuit Judge:
Plaintiff Lorrie Poublon entered into an agreement with defendants C.H. Robinson Co. and C.H. Robinson Worldwide, Inc. (collectively, “C.H. Robinson”) to arbitrate claims arising out of her employment. In the present action, the district court denied C.H. Robinson’s motion to stay, compel arbitration, and dismiss class and representative claims, concluding that the dispute resolution provision was unconscionable. We hold that the dispute resolution provision is not tainted with illegality and any invalid portions can be severed, and therefore reverse.
