JAMS Solutions

Traditional mediation and arbitration are not the only tools available through JAMS. In some situations other approaches are more appropriate, effective and/or economical. These options, customized for specific organizations, industries and events, can prevent conflicts before they arise or provide more flexible, scalable and creative resolution paths when conflicts do emerge.

The Mediation Table: Conversations in Conflict Resolution

Moderator (00:02): Welcome to this podcast from JAMS. For the next few episodes, you’ll be listening to a new special series: The Mediation Table: Conversations in Conflict Resolution. This series focuses exclusively on mediation—exploring key issues, strategies, and best practices with leading JAMS neutrals and industry professionals. We’re glad you’re joining us for this impactful series. In this episode, we're talking about co-mediation, what it is and how it can benefit clients and neutrals themselves. With us are two JAMS neutrals who have experienced co-mediating, Lynn Duryee, a former superior court judge in Marin County, California. And Rebekah Ratliff, a former commercial complex insurance claims professional. Welcome, Rebekah and Lynn, you all are known as the settlement sisters. So, first of all, just what's that about? How did you all become known as the settlement sisters?
