Upcoming Will Work For Food Presentations
The Will Work For Food programs are presented primarily by and for attorneys, mediators, and arbitrators.
Each Thursday at 8 a.m. Pacific, an amazing colleague joins us for a webinar presentation about a timely topic.
These programs are free. We don’t ask you to pay for these invaluable webinars, instead, we hope that you’ll make a donation of any size to your local food bank.
Mediation: Making the Practice of Law Even More Noble
Mediation is more than the transfer of cases from the courtroom to the conference table. It requires a change in the mindset of attorneys from advocates, trained to impeach and defeat their opponent, to peacemakers, whose goal is to find common ground and peaceful resolution among the parties. Mediators are trained to be problem-solvers, harmonizers, and peacemakers, the healers – not the promoters – of conflict. Indeed, mediation is the highest calling in the legal profession because it places lawyers on the pedestal with the other healing ministries.
