Veteran mediator and engaging presenter Eric Galton starts the program, taking us through the “time machine” of mediation from its origins to what lies ahead. Four of the sessions focus on trends in “early” dispute resolution (EDR)—one with Eric English and Pat O’Malley and two concurrent breakout sessions in the afternoon followed by a panel discussion. One of the breakout sessions will focus on early dispute resolution in family law and the other on the same within the civil law landscape. The panel will elicit important and timely discourse about social-emotional learning (SEL) and how it is shaping the future of mediation. Justice Debra Lehrmann returns for her welcomed update from the Supreme Court of Texas and our ethics hour will focus on the ethical implications of AI for mediators.
Registration fees:
- $125 for current Credential holders
- $150 for non-Credential holders
