Legal Grounds | Scott Levin on Courtesy as a Prerequisite for Negotiation, Focusing on the Resolution Instead of the Argument, & Finding Grace Despite Our Differences
We all know the question: 'If a tree falls in the forest & no-one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?"
This kind of thought-experiment came to mind after my conversation this week which left me asking, "If two people are arguing without a goal of some sort of resolution, at what point does it just become a fight?"
Joining me this week to unpack that question is Attorney and Mediator Scott Levin.
Having practiced for more than 20 years, a decade ago Scott made the choice to work exclusively in the realm of mediation and conflict resolution.
As he shares in our conversation, he realized he did his best work when helping both parties to resolve a matter. And his clients and peers certainly agree.
Named one of 2024's Top Law Firm in San Diego, Scott continues to build his practice into one that fosters innovative solutions through collaboration, communication, and cooperation.
We discuss why any sort of negotiation can't truly begin until both parties can bring politeness to the table, and just how easy it can be to fall into endless arguments that serve neither client nor counsel.
Enjoy the show!
