The fact that ADR often involves some overlapping skills with judging or lawyering makes it easy to forget that it is a different profession - the roles are different, the ethics are different, and the business plan is different. Some people make the transition between these fields smoothly, and others do not.
So is this career change right for you? Join us to learn:
- How the ADR profession differs from judging or lawyering
- What you should do to assess whether ADR is right for you
- Options and paths for transitioning to an ADR practice (whether arbitration, mediation, court-appointed neutral work, hearing examiner, ombuds or otherwise)
- What steps you should take in making the transition
- Challenges you will face and practical tips and perspective from panelists who have made the transition
