Negotiation and Facilitation

The negotiation

Negotiation is one of the methods of conflict resolution by which the parties or their lawyers undertake a process to find a satisfactory negotiated solution to a conflict.

Facilitation during CRA

Thanks to my experience in civil and commercial litigation, I can support and facilitate reconciliation between the parties during conciliation (CRA), a private method of conflict resolution in which the conciliator, a judge appointed by the court in a judicial dispute, plays a passive role in the search for a negotiated solution.

The role of the negotiating lawyer is:

In the negotiation process, the negotiating lawyer acts in the sole interest of his client. He is not neutral.

To analyze the client’s file to identify the best negotiation approach
To assist the client in properly assessing their best alternative to settlement, including the costs and risks associated with their case
To make recommendations to the client regarding the appropriateness and terms of offers and counteroffers to be presented or accepted

Suggest creative and original solutions
Prepare and present settlement offers or counteroffers, whether in writing or during negotiation meetings
Draft and review settlement agreements to ensure they are enforceable

Why choose me to negotiate?

As a lawyer mandated to negotiate in a case, I really know my clients’ cases, the real strengths and weaknesses and the real issues of the cases and my clients.

While I am prepared for trial or arbitration, I am often the best at negotiating advantageous settlements with the opposing party.
