[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love this topic! i will retire in about 5 years. I have a law degree that I have not used, but am looking into the possibility of getting into mediation, first as a volunteer and then works towards getting paid. I also want to get an executive coaching certification. I don't need full-time work/my same income and I do not want to be tied to going into an office anymore.[/quote] So legal mediators generally have to have knowledge of the law….the best and most sought after private mediators are generally retired judges. There is no chance most people would agree to have someone that never practiced law mediate their case.[/quote] I have practiced and I clerked for an appellate court. I have a valid law license. I am not talking about mediating Coke vs. Pepsi type litigation. It's a retirement job. It can be small potatoes stuff.[/quote] You literally said you have a law degree you have not used, so I’m not exactly sure how you practiced. A clerkship from decades ago means nothing if you haven’t used your law degree since then. I’ve used mediators before and they are only worth the time and expense when they have experience, if not expertise, in the legal area at issue. [/quote] Thanks for your input. I am sure that your opinion and continued fixation on this represents the entire legal community at large across the country.[/quote]
