This book is a walk-through of all the parts of mediation. The authors walk the reader through the basics of mediation, deciding whether to mediate, choosing a mediator, starting a mediation case, preparing for the mediation, how the mediation works, how to write an agreement, what happens if you don't reach an agreement, what happens if the agreement doesn't work after all, divorce mediation, business mediation, employment mediation, and using lawyers.



This is an easy to follow book with plenty of examples. Although the book mentions the high cost and time involved with lawyers (and the other impediments that might arise with lawyers), the authors explain clearly different situations in which you would not want to mediate. I thought this enlightening.



The last chapter discussing doing your own legal research and lists a host of good resources. I'm already exploring most of those. Very well done.



The only real dig I have is the pagination. With each chapter, the page numbers start over. Although the chapter number precedes, it is still a little aggravating.



Overall, if you are thinking about mediation or litigation, you would not be wasting your time to read this first.
