Join the Massachusetts Bar Association for a mock hearing in which the
process of mediation is the subject of the argument. Appearing before a judge,
two attorneys will debate the benefits and flaws in mediation and conciliation.
Panelists will act out the roles of the judge, attorneys, husband, wife,
conciliator and mediator in a family law matter.
Held in open session, the presentation will portray the result of the
parties’ decision to mediate as an alternative to continuing with a trial.
Panelists will argue the benefits and pitfalls of mediation in a fun and
informative way.
