- A mediation begins with an opening statement from the mediator explaining the rules and the process and it can end with binding written agreement to resolve some or all of the matters in dispute.
This opening statement is presented by Thomas F. Meyer, a Florida Supreme Court Certified Circuit Court Civil Mediator from Delray Beach, Florida. In this video, this mediator not only presents the basic rules of mediation, but also some extended insights and rationales to provide viewers with a behind the scenes look into how and why mediation has been such a successful method to settle lawsuits.
You will be able to observe how a mediator’s personality, training and experience can be combined to create a calm and level playing field for all concerned and how mediators will work to motivate and help the parties to communicate and negotiate with one another all within a controlled confidential proceeding. The video is divided into eleven sections;
1 Introduction
2 No Limits - Ask for What You REALLY Want
3 Mediator’s Role - Communication and Negotiation
4 Patience
5 Mediator is Neutral - Will Treat Everyone Equally
6 Settlement Authority
7 No Time Limits Allowed
8 Confidentiality
9 Compromise - Can You Handle the Truth?
10 Rules of Conduct - One at a Time with Respect
11 Self-Determination

Thank you for saying "something has to give". As a family conflict mediator, I have witness alot of parents coming to mediation with the sole purpose of winning and manipulation.
A lot of mediation involves taking a fresh and more objective look at the strength (weakness) of both sides of a lawsuit. What has to give is unfounded unrealistic expectations.
Excellent! As a Florida Supreme Ct. certified mediator myself I applaud you for sharing this information. Especially the part of self determination.
Hi. Please would you rather use mediation or allow the parties to negotiate themselves for a business dispute.
Self-determination is almost ALWAYS how disputes and lawsuits are resolved. In the end, almost no one goes the distance to wait for lawyers and judges to actually try and decide cases.
@@fortunechuka1939 Depends. To make settlement negotiations meaningful, you need confidentiality and a commitment or obligation from everyone to participate. Adding a mediator adds a safe harbor which might make one or more parties more comfortable to talk.

I like that you simulate what the room looks like and how the start of the mediation might go.
Great video! Thank you for creating this! There’s nothing like it on CZcams!
Outstanding. Very informative....
Thank you for sharing your sound advise on mediation. I have my hearing this week and your video has helped me understand what to expect.
Hope you did well.
@@jeffmarionpersonalinjuryla2966 No, my case ended with no restitution. I should have changed attorneys when I felt they lost interest in my case. It was a horse accident and it has changed my life forever. An accident that should have never happened if the trail guide had done his job. Thanks for asking.
Great video. Thanks for your insight.
👍Wow. Terrific. Thank you.
Very informative, short and crisp presentation
Very helpful
This Discussion Will Be Pavethe Wayfor Solution, After Long Time Misunderstanding , peaple Should Respect This Meeting Discussion.
Respect is compromised when a dispute arises. Then the parties lose trust in one another. Without trust, there can be no meaningful settlement discussions. Mediators serve as a medium for both parties to trust throughout the settlement process.
Great information. Outstanding!! 😊
I love it.
Everything Will Be Discussed In Discussion Meeting , Not Necessary Now Because of That Is Why What We Have Talked The Discussion Promised Your Side Is Being Waiting To Plan Day , Time But PM time Is Necessary According to Us . Thanks .
I wish you were in Maine.
Awesome content.
Thank you. More content on the way.
Lawyer and warrior rhyme.
Other lawyers on CZcams say Mediation is non binding. They say if it’s binding then it’s called Arbitration. Are they wrong?
If an agreement is reached during mediation, it can be just as binding as a judgment in trial; however, its entirely up the parties in mediation to decide whether or not to settle and under what terms. Arbitration, on the other hand, transfers the power and discretion to decide a case from the parties themselves to a third party, i.e. the arbitrator who rules similar to a judge based upon evidence presented during the arbitration.
The at fault party should just pay out to avoid all this that should be a law
As long as insurance carriers can turn a buck delaying and denying claims, we're stuck with the situation we have. There are insurance carriers who have a strategy of delaying and dragging their feet.
Well, generally speaking, that is the way laws are supposed to work, but you can't always expect people to follow the rules and do the right thing. When they don't, that's when you need mediators, lawyers and judges to figure it all out and encourage or, if needed, force people to get back in line.
@@justplay0621 your absolutely right
@@jeffmarionpersonalinjuryla2966 Unfortunately, both avoidance and attrition are widely used legal strategies. As long as the perceived benefits outweigh the perceived costs, such tactics will continue. Change the laws, change the cost/benefit calculations or convince people to get more of a conscience.
Generally, that is how laws work. Unfortunately, people do not always follow the laws. Then what...There is no self-help, so we must rely on lawyers and judges to set them straight or we can try to persuade people to work things out on their own. That's what mediators try to do.
Small investment of your time...on average you are at $1500 minimum
Do you think paying $1500 is too much to pay? May I ask, how much would you be willing to pay a lawyer to handle it for you in court instead? Litigation costs much more and statistics show that less than 5% of all lawsuits are ever actually tried. In other words, almost all lawsuits are settled out of court which is exactly where you can start with mediation.
So the mediator can just keep you there until they want to release you....?..
No, you are not held hostage, but you might be tempted to want to leave BEFORE all meaningly settlement talks have been discussed. Only the mediator will know when enough is enough because he hears everything from both sides not just your side. That's the power of confidentiality.
