Preparing Mediation Reports


This 2-hour webinar will address the various approaches to writing mediation reports/memorandum of mediations. Many different styles have evolved, sometimes driven by the issues in dispute or even the professional background of the mediator. We seldom receive opportunities to review the numerous styles and approaches to report preparation. In this webinar many different approaches to Mediation report writing will be discussed and shared to increasing understanding and to further develop report writing skills. We will examine the components of a mediation report, and identify some tips to effectively communicate agreements reached, as well as pitfalls to avoid in written reports.
