"Mel was appointed mediator of a 5 party case. Mel
thought "outside of the box", held a pre-mediation attorney
only meeting to work-out a schedule and start settlement
discussions. Thereafter the parties tried to negotiate a
comprehensive settlement, but ran into several roadblocks.
The parties called on Mel, who found the bridges over the
roadblocks. The case settled, along with a related case in
another court involving a 6th party."
