Testing Your Arbitration Dispute in a Mock Arbitration
A valuable preparation option for any high-stakes arbitration is the mock arbitration, which serves many of the same purposes as mock trials and jury research for court cases. Mock arbitrations serve to:
- Identify strengths and weaknesses in a party’s case and arguments;
- Show where and how case presentation and cross examination can be improved;
- Help counsel and client better evaluate their case based on arbitrator feedback; and
- Help the client and counsel evaluate settlement options.
When done well, the reason a mock arbitration works is that counsel (and client) receives neutral mock arbitrator feedback on every issue that counsel seeks to test.
