Wrongful Termination
The dance. And by this I mean the delicate process of building trust and uncovering the positions and the underlying reasons for the positions of each party. Also, negotiations – lots of them. I think that the role of the mediator is at core, to provide negotiation strategy and insight to each party after the mediator has obtained a thorough understanding of the all the moving parts. When the plaintiff is considering an opening offer of $2,000,000.00 on a garden variety wrongful termination claim for their client who was terminated after a solid four days of employment, two of which were sick days, it would not be unusual for a discussion to occur with the plaintiff as to the effectiveness of such an opening — which will lead to a mini-negotiation with the plaintiff as to what the best course of action may be. Along the same lines, when defense counsel in an employment case wants to make an opening offer of $1,000.00 on a case that involves managerial conduct of the “Filner Headlock” type, a similar discussion and negotiation will occur. Remember, I am in both rooms. I have information that you don’t. Let me help you. See above as to the importance of trust.
