Video conferences and conference calls are tools familiar to employment lawyers. Now more than ever we find ourselves using these platforms in new ways, including to resolve disputes of all kinds. Join four seasoned neutrals who have been conducting a variety of virtual employment mediations (including discrimination, harassment, and wage and hour claims) to learn more about what works, what doesn't, and how you can use remote ADR with success in your practice. Topics include: moving employment cases forward using virtual platforms; understanding the technology; preparing lawyers, parties and clients for virtual mediation; advocating effectively in an online environment; closing the deal; and experience-based discussion of the pros, cons and red herrings.
