When two or more parties need to reach an agreement, it’s helpful to have the assistance of a business attorney trained in negotiations. Taking much less time than litigation, but often used in conjunction with a pending lawsuit, negotiation is not tied to the court schedule. This can save significant amounts of money since there is no waiting on a judge for a hearing to begin. And because negotiation doesn’t require the presence of a judge, these informal proceedings keep the deciding power in the hands of the disputing parties. Both sides can speak freely without involving the court; however, all parties must agree before the negotiations are settled.

Unlike a mediator, whose job it is to ensure the negotiation is conducted fairly, the negotiation attorneys of Wynne, Smith & Young, PLLC represent your best interests to ensure that you are pleased with the settlement.
