Divorce Resolutions Mediators Present 2006 Workshopsfirst posted on: 7/21/2006
Larry and Chris Present at Local and National Conferences
For Divorce Mediators, Family Law Paralegals and Family
Mediation Graduate Classes
Larry and
Chris (Divorce Resolutions® partners and mediators) have
presented workshops and classes at a recent national
conference of family and divorce mediators, a state
continuing legal education program for Colorado family law
paralegals, and served as the guest speaker at several local Denver university graduate
program mediation classes.
2006 Spring and Summer presentations and workshop events include:
Regis University, Denver, Colorado School
for Professional Studies (Graduate Program):
Advanced Family Mediation Class (July 11, 2006, Denver and Westminster, Colorado)
 We had the pleasure of meeting with two
different classes of Professor
Michael L. Spangle, Ph.D.
(Dr. Spangle teaches Regis University courses in negotiation,
mediation, facilitation, team communication and leadership
and is the co-author of two alternative dispute resolution
books,
Collaborative Approaches to Resolving Conflict,
and
Negotiation - Communication for Diverse Settings.)
At the first class, Larry spoke with
Mike's students at Regis University regarding how he became
interested in the field of family mediation, common
practical problems in overcoming impasse, and the goals of
mediation.
At the second class, Larry and Chris
invited the students to our offices to learn more about the
practical and technical aspects of the real-world of mediating divorce and family law cases in a private practice
setting.

Paralegals, Colorado Continuing Legal Education (May 24,

Colorado continuing legal education program with HalfMoon

Association for Conflict Resolution,
Family Section, National Mid-Year Conference (July 14, 2006,
Cape Cod, Massachusetts)
 Larry and Chris presented at the
national mid-year gathering (“Making Waves, Breaking
Barriers”) of the pre-eminent professional organization of
family mediators, the Association for Conflict Resolution's
Family Section. Held at Cape Cod, Massachusetts, the
family and divorce mediator workshop focused on
enhancing client satisfaction, and family mediation practice
professionalism through the use of special tools and forms
and innovative uses of technology.
Iowa certified mediator, Steve Sovern,
J.D. (an attorney-trained mediator in
private mediation practice in Cedar Rapids, Iowa) was kind to review the
workshop quite favorably: As a professional mediator, I don’t ever recall getting as much useful information at a single mediation-related workshop!
