Think mediation is only worthwhile if you reach a settlement? Think again! This practical program explores the overlooked strategic advantages of mediation, even when parties leave without an agreement. Learn how to leverage the mediation process to gain valuable insights, test arguments, and position your case advantageously. We’ll examine how to craft mediation briefs that serve multiple strategic goals while avoiding the common trap of recycling dispositive motions. Finally, we’ll tackle the technical requirements for creating enforceable settlement agreements under CCP 664.6, with special attention to crafting bulletproof term sheets. Join us for an eye-opening look at mediation techniques that pay dividends whether or not you reach a final settlement.
