Rekha Rangachari interviews Mediator & Founder of Peacemaker, Brian K. Epps

In this episode, Brian drills down on the benefits, and misunderstandings, surrounding risk analysis as a critical tool for attorneys and mediators. Peacemaker offers a solution to the “math is hard” axiom, mapping litigant responses to simple questions — ultimately displayed in a simple table rather than a confusing decision tree matrix. Brian demonstrates through case examples how to incorporate risk analysis into mediation, to find a pathway between gut instinct-approximations and sound approaches to valuation.
