  • Assess the “right time” to mediate your employment dispute for maximum success
  • Evaluate the settlement value of your case and the risks of failing to successfully resolve the dispute through mediation
  • Identify the key barriers to settlement in your case and explore strategies for overcoming them
  • Understand whether and/or when to utilize mediation tools such as a “best and final” demand/offer, a “mediator’s proposal,” and various non-monetary settlement terms and determine how to most effectively make use of them
