Practice Area:Business, Commercial, Partnership Disputes, Real Estate
David Coher a mediator who leverages his experiences as an attorney and a Fortune 500 executive to help others resolve disputes, saving them litigation costs without the element of “giving in.”
Mediation is a powerful tool for resolving disputes, but it’s not just about reaching a settlement. As a mediator, his approach focuses on helping clients leave the mediation process feeling satisfied with the choices they made, rather than simply settling for the sake of settling.
The key to this approach is empowering clients to make their own decisions. Rather than imposing his views on what ‘should’ happen, he works with clients to help them identify their underlying interests and needs to explore a range of options.
This can be a challenging process, especially in situations where emotions are high and positions are entrenched. It requires experience and the right touch. When clients feel that they have been heard and understood and the solution comes from them, they are much more likely to leave the process feeling satisfied with the outcome.
