This course examines dispute resolution processes outside of, or supplemental to, the civil trial system with particular emphasis on negotiation, mediation, and arbitration as dispute resolution mechanisms. This examination includes a study of the procedures and dynamics associated with each mechanism as well as an overview of the pertinent legal framework. A particular focus is on the skills dimension, and students will participate in a number of simulation exercises designed to assist in the development of the lawyering skills associated with each process.
