VIRTUAL MEDIATION & ARBITRATION

2020 has introduced a new set of challenges to the practice of law everywhere. Face-to-face meetings, depositions and mediations – once common – are now unpreferable for clients with health issues or those concerned with travel. 

Mannion Prior has established its Virtual Mediation practice, in which a member of our ADR team can conduct a full mediation via Zoom webinar. Proven through recent sessions with the Mannion Prior ADR team, mediation via Zoom allows for parties, their attorneys and a mediator to participate in group and one-on-one discussions in “breakout rooms.”

The online sessions are remarkably similar to what clients would experience if they were down the hall from one another in our office.
