Mediation: A Practical Guide
Thorogood Publishing, Nov 2010, Pages: 200
Everything You Need To Know About Mediation
- Do you know how to get the best out of mediation for yourself and your clients?
- Do you know how to set up, prepare and conduct yourself at mediation?
- Are you aware of the advantages and benefits of mediation, and of the pitfalls to avoid?
In 1999 judges were given the power to suggest that opposing parties try mediation rather than proceed straight to litigation, thereby saving both money and stress. More than a decade on, and with the court system increasingly overstretched, mediation is being used as a valid, dynamic, confidential and extraordinarily effective process for dispute resolution.
This Mediation Briefing will guide you through every aspect of the process, from deciding whether a dispute is suitable for mediation, through the arrangement and preparation process, and on to the actual mediation and its resolution. The briefing also guides the reader through the different types of mediation, from its use in the workplace through to cases of clinical negligence.
