Mediators and Attorneys’ Working Together
Mediators and Attorneys’ Working Together
Mediators and attorneys work together in a variety of ways, collaborating toward a solution that their clients can accept. Attorneys at times would like their clients to mediate toward a solution to avoid prolonged litigation and court hearings. At times, the court may refer parties to mediation and attorneys will select or the court may refer the parties to a mediator prior to a court hearing to see if the parties can reach a resolution.
