$799.00

This Mediation Advocacy course is designed for attorneys who would like to expand their range of professional services to include effectively representing clients in mediation. Mediation Advocacy differs from traditional litigation advocacy and the attorney of today needs to master the skills to help their clients win at mediation.

We build on your education and experience as an attorney and help you expand your skills in a new direction one that will add value for your clients and your legal practice.

This course redefines what it means to obtain a successful outcome for your client while providing the best practices on how to represent your client’s interests in the mediation room.

Consider the following…

For most corporate clients, their lawsuits never make it to court. Parties negotiate settlements to avoid the costly process of litigation and the risk of negative results, including bad publicity.

For many individual clients, the expense associated with pursuing a dispute through the legal system is prohibitive and time-consuming. They prefer an alternative process that saves time and money and allows the possibility of restoring broken relationships. When presented a choice, most individuals opt for a process that enables them to participate fully in making decisions.

The solution in both settings is to prioritize dispute resolution through mediation before exhausting the traditional litigation process.

Understanding how to effectively navigate the mediation process … and possessing the skills necessary to successfully represent your client in the mediation room, is no longer an option. It is essential knowledge for practicing attorneys.

The mediation movement has started in India and today’s lawyers need to understand how to use the mediation process to their clients advantage. With the government encouraging mediation in state and public disputes, it is just a matter of time before clients demand their counsel have expertise in helping them successfully navigate the mediation process.

Through this Mediation Lawyer in India course, we build on your training as an attorney/lawyer and help you broaden your expertise in a new area that will benefit both your clients and your legal practice. This course reshapes the concept of achieving a successful result for your client and offers best practices for effectively representing your clients interests during mediation.

This Mediation Lawyer in India program is designed for the lawyers of today and tomorrow in India. Don’t be left behind.

What is Mediation?
Mediation is a method of alternative dispute resolution where a neutral third party helps the conflicting parties reach a mutual settlement that benefits both sides. Like arbitration, mediation offers a way to resolve disputes outside the court system. However, unlike arbitration where the arbitrator makes a binding decision, mediators guide the process, allowing the parties involved to decide the terms of their agreement. In India, mediation is known for resolving cases faster than the traditional judicial system, and it also provides parties with the advantage of potentially maintaining a collaborative relationship in the future.

What is the role of a Mediation Lawyer in India?
A mediation lawyer represents clients during the mediation process. The lawyer plays a crucial role by guiding their clients through the mediation, ensuring their interests are well-represented. Their effectiveness hinges on a deep understanding of the mediation process and how best to advocate for their clients in this setting.

Consider the following…

According to a January 2024 report by the Supreme Court of India, 50 million cases are pending in the civil and criminal courts.
The average time frame for resolving a case in Indian courts is up to 3 – 15 years depending upon the court and the complexity of the case. And that is before the Appeals process.
The mediation act of 2023 combined with the 2024 guidelines released by the Ministry of Finance for state disputes, have catapulted mediation to the forefront of dispute resolution as a way of reducing the burden on the courts and disputants.
