Pre-Mediation Calls For Better Mediation Preparation
Manage episode 333608347 series 3339980
Pre-mediation calls between attorneys and the mediator, whether jointly or separately, are a useful part of mediation preparation. Of course, these calls can be used for things like scheduling, but what is really productive is where, “the mediator serves as a moderator–so to speak–of that call, and asks questions like, ‘Are there any other documents, are there any documents that either of you believe that you need to be able to have a productive mediation session?’” In this episode, Jean Lawler–commercial + insurance mediator and arbitrator–draws from her experience as a mediator to discuss the value of pre-mediation calls. Episode highlights include:
- The value of a joint pre-mediation call between the mediator and counsel for both sides
- The value of a private mediation call between the mediator and counsel for one side
