So You Want to Be a Mediator? Making the Paradigm Shift
Often the most difficult thing for a lawyer to do when starting out in mediation is to make the shift from running the show to facilitating a discussion without controlling the outcome. The best Mediators make this shift and enjoy it! In fact, many find it rather freeing, but it can be a difficult challenge. Come explore what is involved and learn how to “Let It Go.”

“I’ve Got an Idea!” How to Make and Respond to Proposals
Negotiating is a skill that even some attorneys find to be difficult, so it is understandable that clients often have no idea how to effectively make and respond to proposals − especially in divorce. This 3 step process keeps clients focused on the “how” and curtails the blame game. We teach you, so you can teach them! Join us to find out how!

Mediator Ethics: How they differ from your other profession's rules
How do mediator ethics compare to attorney, therapist or financial professional ethics? Does the law count? Can I talk about the law? What if the parties want to deviate from the law? What if one party seems to know more than the other? What if they want to do something really weird? Can I talk to one party alone? What if one party wants me to keep a secret from the other? What if one party rubs me the wrong way or gives me a bad feeling? Discuss these situations and more! Join us to explore the world of mediator ethics.
