Tactics to Make Mediation Work for You

Angie Vincent-Hamacher participated in a panel discussion hosted by the American Bar Association's Section of Labor and Employment Law. The panel of experienced mediators explored the decisions that can make all the difference in creating the best environment to be successful in negotiations and how the world of mediation has changed in an era of remote meetings. Vincent-Hamacher and the panelists offered insights on the best practices for mediation preparation, including picking the right time to mediate, choosing the right mediator, preparing the client, preparing a powerful position paper, setting the tone with the opening statement, and getting into a zone of bargaining as soon as possible.
