		<description><![CDATA[Mark&#8217;s Mediation Strategies
Information is a valuable commodity.  It translates into power, both in litigation and at mediation. The careful use of information is an integral part of your bargaining strategy.  At the outset, it is important to understand what information you need to obtain from, and provide to, the other side so there can be [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Mark&#8217;s Mediation Strategies
Lawyers are careful at mediation about the information they reveal.  They fear giving up some advantage or losing the opportunity to surprise an unsuspecting opponent.  To learn how to protect sensitive information in a negotiation, just listen to how politicians talk.  They use a range of “blocking” techniques to avoid answering even the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Mark&#8217;s Mediation Strategies
In certain types of cases, opening statements in mediation can be helpful in moving the parties closer to resolution.  But an opening that merely rehashes old arguments isn&#8217;t convincing and misses the purpose of settlement; namely, to leave the parties better off than going to trial.  In addition, a confrontational opening engenders the kind of [...]]]></description>

&#8220;What above all else is eroding public confidence in the Nation&#8217;s judicial system is the perception that litigation is just a game, that the party with the most resourceful lawyer can play it to win, that our seemingly interminable legal proceedings are wonderfully self-perpetuating but incapable of delivering real-world justice.&#8221; &#8212; Justice Antonin [...]]]></description>
