The Art of Settlement: Techniques and Strategies for Choosing the ADR Option that Gets the Best Results for Your Client

Program Originally Presented Wednesday, May 7, 2025 

Settlement negotiation is a vital component of the litigation process but too often viewed as a last resort. Given that a high percentage of cases settle before reaching trial, shouldn’t we be viewing settlement as a powerful advocacy tool?

This CLE program will empower litigators to employ techniques and strategies necessary to navigate and achieve successful settlements. Attendees will learn, through scenario-based skits, how to approach the process with intention and confidence after choosing the ADR option that will be best for your client.

Attend this program to hear a comprehensive examination of the various options for dispute resolution, including mediation, ADR and judicial settlement conferences. Receive guidance on strategies, pointers, tricks and other considerations from experienced neutrals, judges and litigators.
