S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
I try to encourage folks to go into joint
0:04
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
session, although I also make it very clear to them that it
0:08
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
is their choice.
0:09
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
And I talk about the benefits of
0:13
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
a joint session.
0:14
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
And again,
0:15
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
this is on a case -by -case basis.
0:17
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
It might be important for the other side to
0:21
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
see the...
0:23
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
the plaintiff,
0:24
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
for instance,
0:24
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
at least meeting the plaintiff,
0:27
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
if not hearing from the plaintiff,
0:30
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
let's say, in a personal injury case so that they can
0:34
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
describe for themselves their injuries and so on.
0:37
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
Because even if they've already had a deposition and even if they've already covered
0:41
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
it, to actually engage in a conversation in a more relaxed,
0:45
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
sort of open -ended...
0:47
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
kind of discussion has a lot more authenticity.
0:50
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
It gives the plaintiffs a chance to tell their story and it gives the
0:54
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
defense an opportunity to take another look at the plaintiff
0:58
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
and there may be people who were not present at the deposition.
1:02
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
There may be people who were not part of the discovery process who
1:06
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
would benefit from having the opportunity to see the other
1:11
S…
Speaker 3 (1779134119387)
parties.
1:12
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
attorneys are even more resistive than they were in the past
1:16
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
to joint sessions.
1:17
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
Again,
1:19
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
I think they find the process is too tedious for
1:23
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
them. They think they know what the other side is going to say.
1:26
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
They feel that it sets the conversation back,
1:30
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
and that may be because they've worked with mediators who didn't know
1:34
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
how to handle a joint session or facilitate a joint session.
1:38
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
I always want to know who's in the room,
1:41
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
who could benefit,
1:42
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
and what would be the benefit.
1:44
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
the specific benefit of a joint session.
1:48
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
There are some cases in highly complex business cases,
1:52
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
for instance,
1:53
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
where there are a lot of documents,
1:55
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
there might be forensic accounting issues,
1:57
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
there might be scientific issues,
1:59
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
there may be intellectual property issues
2:04
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
that are very dense,
2:05
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
that if the joint session is properly...
2:09
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
properly facilitate and I try to explain to the parties if it's properly facilitated
2:13
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
we can actually save an enormous amount of time rather than having
2:18
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
me just schlep a message back and forth and information that may be
2:22
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
very nuanced and may be better.
2:25
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
for them to deliver the information than have me deliver.
2:30
S…
Speaker 2 (1779134119387)
And we talk about that.
2:31
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
Many mornings they'll come in and say,
2:33
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
let's not have a comment session.
2:34
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
Let's just get in the room.
2:35
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
I've heard all of his crap.
2:36
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
He's heard all of mine.
2:37
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
We're like an old married couple.
2:38
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
We don't want to talk to each other anymore.
2:40
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
We just want to find out if we can make a deal or not.
2:42
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
And those of us who've been doing this a long time know that if you
2:46
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
just start out without a warm -up,
2:48
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
it usually is unsuccessful.
2:52
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
And so some softening,
2:54
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
some, at least I found,
2:57
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
topic that's safe to talk about,
3:01
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
and then some area that has nothing to do with the controversy
3:05
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
in the case to talk about,
3:07
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
that humanizes people and begins to open up the avenues
3:11
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
for resolution,
3:13
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
are critical.
3:17
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
with some few exceptions,
3:19
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
insist on a common session,
3:21
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
always have the parties introduce themselves,
3:23
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
always have them tell us a little bit about themselves.
3:26
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
People like to talk about themselves,
3:28
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
especially on safe terms.
3:30
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
So you have to force them.
3:32
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
The lawyers don't want to,
3:34
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
they're not comfortable in that.
3:35
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
The age -old story,
3:37
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
they're just going to tick each other off.
3:38
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
They don't like each other.
3:39
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
You're going to make it worse.
3:41
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
As though if we just go into private session,
3:45
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
And you've been there,
3:46
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
the bouncing,
3:47
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
what I call mediator ping pong,
3:49
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
bouncing back and forth in the rooms while they tell you how horrible the other side
3:53
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
is and what awful people they are and how they lie.
3:55
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
And somehow the idea is if you get them together,
3:58
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
they're going to not like each other or it's going to be worse.
4:02
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
How could it be worse?
4:03
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
They want to kill each other.
4:04
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
And so I think I
4:08
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
use the mediator license as much as possible.
4:10
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
My concession to them.
4:13
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
And I give this as a tip to some where both lawyers call up and say,
4:16
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
we don't want a common session.
4:17
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
Our client doesn't want to meet with them and so on.
4:20
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
Is to say to them,
4:21
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
OK, I'll tell you what I'll do.
4:22
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
I'm going to do a timed reconnaissance session with
4:26
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
each side before I go in
4:30
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
and have a common session.
4:32
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
And I want to hear a little bit about it.
4:34
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
But it's going to be timed.
4:35
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
No more than 30 minutes.
4:37
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
And I'm going to tell the other side.
4:40
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
and where you can load up if you want to and tell me whatever it is.
4:43
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
And then I'm going to bring the parties together to explain the rules and hopefully
4:48
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
out of you I'm going to get some constructive thoughts about what you think will work and so
4:53
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
that I'll have something to talk about.
4:54
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
And that I sometimes do,
4:57
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
which is to not force a common session and to give them that
5:02
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
concession.
5:03
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
But I always end up back.
5:06
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
almost inevitably in some common session.
5:09
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
And to this day,
5:10
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
despite my many people who would
5:15
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
argue with me,
5:16
S…
Speaker 1 (1779134119387)
I've never had a common session that was harmful.
