Mediation is designed to resolve differences both in and out of the courts. It requires a very different mindset than courtroom litigation. Don’t miss this online Master Series program on February 2 that trains practitioners to resolve conflicts in a non-adversarial, non-confrontational manner, allowing peaceful resolutions between parties.

The program is taught by Richard Calkins, Fred Lane, and Case Ellis, nationally recognized mediators, authors, and educators, and well-known litigators prior to serving as mediators. Mr. Calkins, Mr. Lane, and Mr. Ellis have developed an approach that encourages the mediator to be a peacemaker, deemphasizing the antagonism involved in formal litigation. Their course has considerable hands-on training and requires each participant to complete two full mediations as a mediator. Course topics include an introduction to mediation, caucus form of mediation, qualities of a peacemaker, ethical considerations, other Alternative Dispute Resolution mechanisms, advanced mediator techniques, and arbitration.

The 40 Hour Mediation/Arbitration series qualifies for 40.0 hours MCLE credit, including 40.0 hours Professionalism, Civility, or Legal Ethics credit (subject to approval).
