1) Collaboration - Mediation
My style of collaborative/mediation has me structure my process to assist the parties in reaching a mutually agreeable resolution. I ask questions; I validate and normalize the parties' points of view; I search for interests underneath the positions taken by parties; and I assist the parties in finding and analyzing options for resolution.
I hold joint sessions with all parties present so that the parties can hear each other's points of view, and caucus regularly. I help parties take responsibility for their own disputes and assist them in finding resolution to their disputes.
I want to ensure that parties come to agreements based on information and understanding. I want the parties to have awareness and knowledge on the financial decisions made, and welcome ideas and proposal suggestions from their respective attorneys � who provide guidance to legal �fairness.�
