“There is far greater satisfaction—both to me as a mediator and the parties I work with—in people creating their solutions rather than giving themselves to chance, trusting a judge or an arbitrator who doesn’t know them. The satisfaction from creating one’s solution—or at least one that you helped create—pays far greater dividends in the long run. And, if it helps save money and emotional turmoil, all the better.”
