GENERAL MEMBERSHIP MEETING

MEDIATION FOR PARALEGALS

Our September General Membership Meeting will be in-person at the Arts District Mansion and presented by 

Bo Berry. 

 

For 35 years, Bo was an active trial lawyer.  During his rial practice he owned and managed Berry, Byrne & Randall, Berry & Randall, and The Berry Firm with offices in Dallas, Houston, Oklahoma City, Tulsa and Little Rock.  Bo is now a full-time mediator with Berry Mediations who handles significant, catastrophic and med mal injuries.

This course will help inform paralegals about the mediation process.  It will help paralegals prepare for, participate in, and follow up in mediation.  It will help paralegals understand what the lawyers do at mediation.
