Conducting the Mediation

Webinar Overview

In this webinar, we review the mediation process itself:

• What are the pros and cons of starting in a joint session and/or caucus, including opening remarks by counsel and/or parties?
• When should you consider asking for a private caucus, or even an attorneys-only session?
• How do you best arm/assist the mediator to facilitate the process?
• How do you ensure your client is prepared for the session, from understanding the process to having the right information or people available to answer questions or guide the same?
• Why creativity can be a key element of the process?

We also offer tips on working through impasses, helping you recognize the benefits of mediation even if you don’t resolve the matter at that time, and positioning the matter for settlement in the future.
