After watching the video i understand why during mediation training course we were told to advise parties against brining attorneys to the mediation session. There is also other great videos on YT explaining the downside of it.... It majority if not all mediation practices there is a case intake person to prevent mediator "liking or prefer one party against the other" as one of main mediator principals is - neutrality. Mediator guides parties to mutually satisfactory outcome, not one party to win or lose, it is opposite from what attorneys do - they are monetarily incentivised for thd best possible outcome, not the optimalk outcome.
Sounds like he doesn't want the plaintiff there because he has his own interests involved and would rather settle for a number that he wants. If the plaintiff isn't there then how would they know if the number they wanted was offered?
Bring your Plaintiff to the mediation. It helps them hear the weaknesses from the defense and mediator, not just you. Additionally, they can see you fighting for them. It helps with settlement.
@@MarketingResolution his entire presentation is about him and how he’s the only one who knows what’s going on. Let’s hope some fool is willing to be his cocounsel on every case to keep him under control.
That was the best video on this topic. I have seen dozens of these and you hit it out of the park, Jon

Maybe he's a contingency fee attorney. He want to make money. He wants his own rules
Super helpful

Why is dude so angry?
I don't think he's angry. He's a litigator. He's a gladiator. It's the tone he uses 😄
