Description

COVID-19 is altering the litigation landscape. Stay at home orders and the need for social distancing place an added burden on parties seeking to negotiate a settlement through an alternative dispute resolution (ADR) process.

With the situation on the ground rapidly changing, parties are turning to conducting mediations telephonically and via virtual teleconference technology. This poses unique challenges when attorneys can no longer negotiate with their counterparts face to face. Likewise, mediators and settlement judges must alter their techniques in order to facilitate an effective and successful mediation. Join our expert administrative judge as he provides:

An overview of ADR processes, A discussion of available technologies to conduct the mediation, Practice tips on tailoring techniques in a virtual world.
