About:
Announcing an extraordinary opportunity for our attorneys: an intensive two-day mediation boot camp taught by the best litigators and mediators in our field. The two days will consist of lectures, small group instruction, and small group exercises to comprehensively cover mediation from start to finish including on: client interviewing, managing your client’s expectations, what works at the outset and how to get the defense to consider mediation, insurance involvement, mediation statements, opening statements, what to consider in making an initial demand, and how to get to and document an agreement.
Participants will have an opportunity to engage in mock mediations in small groups to hone in on their skills and receive feedback from former judges and JAMS mediators.
Former judges and JAMS mediators including Sherrie Krauser, William Connelly, Gerald Bruce Lee, Curtis von Kann, Richard Levie, John Mott, Jerry Roscoe, Dennis Sweeney, and Rosemarie Annunziata will be participating to offer their expertise and valuable insight during panels and in small groups.
Our panelists include Deb Eisenberg, Kellee Kruse, Jeanne Louise Heiser, Rob Niccolini, Susan Wiltsie, Nat Calamis, Avi Kumin, Gregg Greenberg, Linda Thatcher, Les Alderman, Sundeep Hora, Garen Dodge, Dough Topolski, Frank Morris, and Alison Davis.
Space is limited: opportunities for participation are on a first come first serve basis.
