Even after a case goes to trial, the skills of a mediator can be useful. In the case where a large monetary verdict is rendered, many issues often remain. One party may need a payment arrangement such as an annuity. One party may be willing to give up part of the monetary verdict in exchange for no appeal. There may be tax consequences that can be worked out. In a personnel case where reinstatement is ordered, there may be a myriad of issues that could be mediated.
Just because the verdict is in, do not discount the need for the services of a mediator. A mediator can help resolve many issues post verdict.
