Presented by Association of Southern California Defense Counsel

Credit
1.0 hour of general credit
The program will describe what Hon. Ben Davidian (Ret.) believes is a looming crisis in alternative dispute resolution caused by huge civil case backlogs in many California counties. These backlogs are a direct consequence of the COVID-19 civil court closures over the last many months. 

The program also presents important practice tips on how to prepare for a mediation and how to present your mediation case in its best possible light, including:

  • Alternatives to Trial
  • Finding a Mediator/Arbitrator
  • Pre-Mediation  Briefs
  • Pre-Mediation Calls
  • Common Mediation Errors
  • Post-Mediation Calls
Hon. Ben Davidian (Ret.) spent almost 7 years as Supervising Judge of the Sacramento County Civil Settlement Center where he personally performed thousands of voluntary and mandatory settlement conferences and oversaw thousands more performed by Pro Temp Judges.
