Conflict Resolution:
Creative Thinking
Sometimes a legal remedy doesn’t achieve the best outcome, but a practical
solution does. The McGowan Law Firm is committed to thinking “outside of the
box” to achieve the best results for its clients.
Settlement And Mediation
Nationally, both criminal and civil cases are more likely to settle than be
tried, as most people wish to avoid the expense, delay and risk that
accompanies a trial.
Increasingly, more civil cases are settled through mediation, which allows
parties to meet with each other and take an active role in resolving their
disputes that doesn’t occur in the traditional attorney versus attorney
negotiation. Richard McGowan completed the Mediation Training Program with
the Nebraska Office of Dispute Resolution and the Nebraska Mediation Center
Association and can guide his clients through the mediation process.
Trial
Finally, while settlement almost always should be explored, it’s important
to prepare for and expect that the case will ultimately go to trial.
