Mediation Demonstration

The OULS recently had the opportunity to work with barrister and CEDR accredited mediator Suzanne Rab from Serle Court Chambers to help in the making of a short film on mediation. The film was written and produced by Suzanne Rab and was shot on location at Serle Court. It stars OULS members Abigail Scott and Peter Savory who played the lawyers for each of the two parties and was directed and edited by Gwyn Hopkins.
The purpose of the film is to promote mediation as a form of Alternative Dispute Resolution (“ADR”) and it is being shown to legal practitioners and their clients to compliment a series of presentations on the subject.

I can't believe I'm the first person to comment on this in 4 years. Granted, this video is boring as shit, but only because the type of mediation I'm interested in is workplace conflict resolution, at the moment. To the next person who randomly comes across this video and sees this one and only comment, many blessings to you, good sir or madam. It's nice to be lonely sometimes. 😊

I happen to be a tax disputes mediator but these kind of mediation is hard as it about business . Everyone is looking at how to stay in business. You have to understand the emotions here.

@@teddymayengo3972 hi! i’m a first year law student! is there anything extra you can tell me about mediation that may help with my studies? i don’t mind what :)

These guys are good actors and this is a good demonstration overall cause this is exactly how it goes down.

Yes for sure for Non Binding Arbitration
Binding is totally different
They Favor Employers over Unions

@@conservativeamber1216 It sucks and now we are having all kinds of problems in the work that resemble very communistic and occultic belief systems.

Excellent demonstration, thanks!

[@adebodundoyle9173]

The video was okay. At the end of each party stating their positions, the mediator did not summarise. It seemed she played no part in facilitating communication between the parties. This gives an impression that the dispute did not need a mediator in the first instance. Consequently, trainee mediators will hardly learn from this clip.

[@ThomasSaidimu-u7b]

Iam a student of ADR.. and in mediation, this is exactly what happens, our mediator in this case should try one more thing.. control one person to talk at a time to avoid argument. More also pointing at each other rises more temperatures, the mediator should creat a condusive environment for both parties.

[@BannerSound]

I've been mediating disputes at work for many years now (very controlled and professional environment in our office) and have recently gone out on my own- My greatest fear, honestly, is that I would not be able to control my own "temper" if I have someone like that rude guy in my session (yes, I know these are actors and may be exaggerating the experience for demonstration purposes)...

[@teapartygotham]

Do you have to have experience in law to begin a mediating career? I’m a film student and thinking of a career change.

[@chudamani46]

I want to learn about mediation

[@noziramoshaba2073]

😂😂 the firts guy is so rude... she should have established some ground rules

[@ridehead8771]

Mediation is only an option if both parties are willing to take compromise end of

[@dowhatmakesyouhappy7002]

This is not true. The judge can order a mediation to happen. If there is no resolution at mediation, the case will be taken back to court where the judge will have the final say.

[@WingoTribe704]

@@dowhatmakesyouhappy7002 what I just don’t want anything and just wanna move on!? Do I still have to show up? Will it go to court? Although she violated “no-contact” and the divorce could be forfeited, I don’t wanna have anything else to do with her and wanna skip mediation

[@everythingdana9322]

right

[@jaz6789]

Great video

[@conservativeamber1216]

This isn't Binding
Binding Arbitration is the worst for the Union Vs Employers who already make BILLIONS

[@kevindurham]

Great mediation video, I feel so relaxed that I'm going to sell all my weed, thank you, so much, let's be RUclips pals?
