Pros/Cons of Mediation
The following is not legal advice.

 

 

Gay Grunfeld spoke in San Francisco on March 10, 2007 about mediation and employment issues.  Grunfeld graduated from Columbia University and works as a litigator in San Francisco, CA.

When choosing a mediator, the parties need to be sure the mediator is able to handle confidential information and does not disclose the information to the other party until there is permission to do so.  When the case settles, it is usual for the settlement agreement to state that neither party admits any liability. 

 

 

Compared to early neutral evaluation, mediation may be expensive because a mediation could cost $400 - $500 per hour.  In early neutral evaluation, an experienced employment attorney evaluates a case when the case involves employment laws, and tries to get each side to settle.  The procedures are at no charge.  The neutral tells each side to settle by telling each side its likelihood of winning when it goes to trial.  The plaintiff may decide to settle because the plaintiff has costs that adds up when it starts to front court costs for litigating.
