In this episode, we explore how focus group clips can be used as tools in mediations. Specifically, I’m sharing five simple things that we can do as plaintiff's lawyers to help our mediations, as presented by a loved and respected mediator on both sides of the aisle.

Learn about virtual versus in-person mediations and strategies for client preparation, such as sending a demand before the mediation. The episode also covers negotiation styles and risk ranges on a case, as well as how to effectively use focus group clips in mediation.
