Listen "Timing Is Everything–When To Mediate"
Episode Synopsis
As an attorney, have you ever wondered when is the right time to mediate a case? “Well first of all, there is no one right time. Only you as the lawyers, the parties, the claims representatives, the general counsel, the people involved in the day-to-day aspects of the case can decide when it's the right time. But it is most certainly the wrong time to go to mediation if you have not evaluated and figured out your case.” In this episode, Jean Lawler–commercial + insurance mediator and arbitrator–draws from her experience as a mediator to discuss the importance of timing when mediating a case.
