Workshop Free legal aid and mediation: ways to solve legal problems and conflicts

• November 11
  
• 17:00–18:30
  
• Online

• Timing 90 minutes, including Q&A

The client has a legal problem – what should a mediator do? How should a manager guide a person in a conflict? When is a lawyer's consultation needed and how will it help prepare for mediation?

Working with conflict, a mediator or manager often faces issues that require legal assistance. It is important to recognize such a need in time, explain the available options to the person, and correctly refer them to a lawyer, maintaining professional boundaries.

Legal consultation helps the client to consciously participate in mediation and evaluate the consequences of agreements. At the practical workshop, we will consider how to combine the possibilities of the free legal aid system with conflict resolution work.

• For practicing mediators and mediation students.
• For managers and executives working with conflicts.
• For lawyers and advocates interested in cooperating with mediators.
• For people who want to better understand the possibilities of legal aid and mediation in their own situation.

• Free legal aid as a resource for a mediator, manager, and a person in a conflict.
• Mediation as an opportunity for conflict resolution.
• The role of the Association of Family Mediators of Ukraine.
• How legal aid and mediation complement each other.
• Practical case: "A person applied with a conflict – what next?"

Using the case as an example, we will combine the discussed approaches into a sequence of actions that participants can use as a guideline in practice.
We will separately work through the practical algorithm "The client has a legal problem - what should the mediator do?" It will help to consistently determine the need for legal assistance, discuss it with the person, and refer them to the appropriate specialist.

The workshop is organized by KROK Business School together with the Association of Family Mediators of Ukraine within the framework of a memorandum of cooperation between the organizations.

The event is also held as part of the implementation of the Joint Action Plan of the Association of Family Mediators of Ukraine and the Coordination Centre for Legal Aid Provision.
