Half-Day | Skills Enhancement for Better County Mediations – Mediating Larger County Cases

This is a half-day course, with four and a half (4.5) CME/CLE/CEU General Hours and one (1) CME/CLE/CEU Ethics Hour.  It focuses on why and how mediating a larger County case is different from mediating a smaller dispute.  We will cover the impact attorneys have on the process and on the mediator, how to identify and manage attorney agendas, and how to manage party empowerment when one or more parties has counsel.  We’ll also cover attorneys’ fees issues, ethical pressures on the mediator, multiparty litigation, and additional confounding factors.
