This second edition of The Complete Guide to Mediation provides a multitude of strategies as well as resources for family lawyers to put into immediate uses in their practices. An essential underpinning of mediation is the creative use of collaboration in divorce cases. This book will provide you eye-opening proven strategies from experts on techniques such as the art of listening, collaboration, dissecting information, empathy, peacemaking, and reconciliation.
