The premise for the program is a recent study that indicates that approximately 95% of cases that do not settle at mediation do settle at a later date prior to trial.
A distinguished panel, chaired by Barry Fisher, comprised of L. Leslie Dizgun, Himelfarb Proszanski LLP, Stephen M. Grant, Grant & Sadvari and Philippa G. Samworth, Dutton Brock LLP, will explore both the strategic and psychological reasons why litigants are deferring difficult settlement decisions at mediation and what mediators and advocates can do to increase the likelihood of settlement at mediation.
I am planning to a attend.
