Mediation With Joe Salama Careers in San Rafael, CA

Mediation is the process of reconciling conflicting parties. In mediation, there is only a resolution if it is acceptable to all parties. I can help all the parties reach a resolution that all parties can agree to, where all parties are winners. My approach is very different from the traditional and more commonly practiced "evaluative/directive" approach which typically involves high pressure and intentionally long sessions. Although I draw on jury trial and litigation experience to help the parties evaluate the relative strengths and weaknesses of their cases before going to court, I do not use this framework to force a settlement. I simply looks at it as one of the many possible outcomes for the mediation, and then I help the parties explore other, more optimal, win/win outcomes. This style of mediation virtually eliminates the "buyer's remorse" that parties often experience the day after the mediation.
