| Mediation Approach: |
I generally use a facilitative approach, though if both parties are self-represented I tend to ask in advance for permission to offer some evaluative tools such that an experience/educational imbalance between the parties does not unduly skew a result (such as when a pro per litigant who has never worked outside of the home in a 40 year marriage does not understand she/he has a right to a share of the other parties’ pension). |
| Arbitration Approach: |
I would employ an evaluative approach. |
