: CKA Mediation and Arbitration Services BlogWhat It Takes To Be A Great Mediation Lawyer - from Geoff Sharp
By Christopher Annunziata
Geoff Sharp recently made an interesting observation about an excellent series of posts from Tennessee lawyer John Day called What it takes to be a great trial lawyer. (It’s lots of great info, so I’ll overlook the fact that John has two “Part 10’s”).
Geoff posits that the same qualities that make a great trial lawyer make a great mediation lawyer, as well. I agree that the lawyers who are most successful in mediation exhibit several of these qualities/skills, including (as Geoff also notes): The ability to pull the trigger; the courage to tell the client the truth; and the ability and willingness to undertake (and share with the client) a cost-benefit analysis throughout the litigation.
