Eric van Ginkel is presenting at the 83rd Meeting of the California State Bar Association!

By Eric van Ginkel

Mediator, Arbitrator and Adjunct Professor Eric van Ginkel will be presenting at the 83rd Annual Meeting of The State Bar of California, on September 24 (Panel 40) from 8-10 am!

Eric will be a member of the panel called "Mediation: Prepare, Present and Produce the Best Results for Your Clients"! 

This two-hour session will include a live mediation and will provide litigators and other mediation participants an essential "to do" list for getting excellent results from your negotiations and settlement conferences.  Roughly 97% of cases settle, so it is important to know best practices for pre-mediation preparation (such as choosing a mediator, deciding whether the case is "ripe" for settlement), managing client expectations, negotiation tactics, and preparing your mediation briefs. 

Eric explored many of these topics in his most recent article Mediation Advocacy: Preparing for Successful Mediations, which you can find on his website www.businessadr.com.  Join him this Friday morning and receive 1.5 Hrs. CLE and 0.5 Hour Legal Ethics while you improve your negotiation techniques!
