    “A Conversation with Chris Nolland” originally held on Friday, January 15, 2021 from 11:30 am CT to 1:00 pm CT. 


    Chris will address the current state of mediation and unique issues facing our profession as we continue to evolve during these challenging times. 

    The discussion is intended to be extremely interactive and will include discussions and strategies about the most effective and best practices in our changing mediation world, remote mediation challenges and opportunities, and thoughts on what permanent changes the pandemic has brought to the mediation community and its constituents – lawyers, clients, and the Courts – all of whom we serve. There will be a significant emphasis on ethical issues.
