PON Live! Book Talk: The Art of Impasse-Breaking in Mediation

In this webinar, David Hoffman will share key lessons from his book, The Art of Impasse-Breaking in Mediation, published by the American Bar Association in December 2025. David’s talk will focus in particular on identifying settlement barriers, overcoming psychological obstacles to settlement, preventing impasses, range-bargaining, and a variety of mediator interventions, such as risk analysis and mediator’s proposals. David will then take questions from attendees on any topic (e.g., lessons from the book and insights from his 33 years of mediation).
