With court closures, funding crises and long delays for justice, the full picture of the developing state of our court system still remains to be seen. As the legal industry navigates this new reality, those developing their legal careers as up-and-coming litigators face a whole new set of challenges. How can these litigators find opportunities to shine in the courtroom with delays and backlogs? Following are some recommendations on how the mediation process can help those attorneys raise their profile.
An effective mediation requires trust and communication between the mediator, attorney and client. Mediation is often seen as a way to manage and curtail the ongoing cost of litigation and provide closure to the litigants. The role of the lawyer is a critical component to this process and positive results can make lasting impressions on clients and a law firm building lasting professional relationships and creating future business opportunities. A well-thought-out strategy is essential to ensuring a successful resolution to any commercial disagreement through any ADR process.
