Arbitration & Mediation

Quick Monday Question - Suit or Sport Coat?

By Christopher Annunziata

As I was dressing for a mediation this morning, I mulled over whether to put on the suit or what’s known as the Atlanta Uniform - tan/khaki slacks, shirt/tie and blue blazer. I wondered whether one presents a different image than the other and whether that matters.

So, I invite comment from my fellow mediators and readers who may be consumers of mediation services: Does the dress/style of the mediator matter? Do you prefer the smart slacks/sport coat/tie combo or the good, old-fashioned suit and tie?
