FINANCIAL CHALLENGES PACKAGE

You can find mediation success, even in the midst of financial challenges.

Financial challenges can frustrate all mediation participants, including the employer, lawyers on both sides, and the mediator. Our Financial Challenges Package offers comprehensive support to navigate these difficulties, leading to better mediation outcomes—at no additional cost.

WHO IT'S FOR

Worried about financial woes interfering with a settlement? This package is for you.

If the employer is grappling with low cash flow, high debt, poor financial performance, market challenges, or a bad prognosis, our multi-disciplinary team can help all parties unpack these issues before and during mediation.

This package is tailored for lawsuits in which:
  • The employer/business is struggling with low cash flow, high debt, or poor financials.
  • The employee/plaintiff’s lawyers are skeptical of the employer’s financial condition.
  • The lawyers on both sides are unsure about the level or severity of the financial challenges.

"I recently mediated with Doug at M Resolution. My client also went through the Financial Distress track and Doug walked them through the evaluation process. This was the first time I've experienced this type of service leading up to mediation. We were able to reach a settlement, thanks in large part to this innovative and effective approach. Doug's ability to communicate with the stakeholders in the defense room was critical for resolving this case."

WHY IT'S NEEDED

Financial challenges often lead to a failed mediation. It doesn’t have to be this way.

Unmanaged financial challenges can surprise and overwhelm mediation participants, leading to distrust and sabotaging any chance of settlement. Our Financial Challenges Package ensures everyone is prepared, preventing last-minute surprises and creating a smoother, more effective mediation process.

The Financial Challenges Package addresses these common pitfalls:

FINANCIAL ISSUES OFTEN DERAIL MEDIATIONS

Unidentified financial issues can lead to unwelcome surprises, potentially derailing the mediation process.


UNCLEAR FINANCIALS CAUSE COSTLY CONFUSION

Confusion and lack of clarity concerning financial challenges

can lead to poor outcomes and increased costs.

FINANCIAL DIFFICULTY LEADS TO DISTRUST

Financial challenges often lead to a breakdown in trust between everyone involved in the mediation process.


SHARING FINANCIALS WON’T SAVE THE MEDIATION

Standard financial disclosures often don't identify challenges prior to mediation, requiring in-depth financial analysis

We find resolution. You enjoy a smoother mediation—at no additional cost.

AVOID COSTLY SURPRISES

Be fully prepared and in control with no unexpected financial issues derailing your mediation.

EMPOWER NEGOTIATIONS

Gain a clear understanding of the financial situation to strengthen your negotiating position.

ENSURE MEDIATION SUCCESS

“We had the opportunity to mediate a wage and hour class action case with M Resolution utilizing the Financial Challenges Package. My firm represented the defendant, and the financial interview and evaluation process was a huge piece to getting the case settled. The financial evaluation helped our clients and us as lawyers immensely in keeping things moving. As most litigators have no doubt experienced, many of the wage and hour class actions against small to medium sized businesses often are less about liability and more about what a company can shoulder. On the flip side, I’ve encountered a few companies that throw their hands up and say they can’t afford anything without doing the work to really understand what they could put towards settlement to stop the bleeding. Having the financial evaluation built into your mediation process is unique and something I really appreciated, so thank you for that.”
