“Views from Neutrals: Strategies for Mediating and Settling Employment Disputes”
Tuesday, October 15th, 2024 |  4:00pm – 5:00pm

This panel will feature a moderated conversation with seasoned settlement professionals regarding key strategies and best practices for overcoming common (and unique) barriers to resolving employment disputes. This session will help participants to:

  • Maximize the availability and benefits of court-provided settlement conferences (including leveraging the new NYS Court ADR Rules) and EEOC mediation options, and understand when/how to most effectively utilize each
  • 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
