LAWLINE CLE: MAXIMIZING YOUR POTENTIAL FOR SUCCESS AT MEDIATION

Join NAM (National Arbitration and Mediation) neutral, Honorable John P. DiBlasi (Ret.), in a pre-recorded Lawline seminar, entitled Maximizing Your Potential For Success At Mediation.

    • Preparing for a Mediation
    • Understanding the Creation of Parameters
    • Writing a Mediation Brief
    • Preparing a Client for the Mediation
    • Making the Best Use of the Joint Session
    • Communication of the Settlement Position
    • Break-Out Sessions – Working Effectively with the Mediator
    • Breaking an Impasse
    • Preparing the Settlement Agreement
    • Continuing Negotiations Post-Mediation
