Negotiate in Mediation for What You Need -- And Get It.
Face it: most of us are not very good at asking others for what we need. We tend to come off as either too aggressive or wishy-washy. Moreover, when we’re in conflict, our asking skills tend to deteriorate into either demanding bitchiness or passive-aggressiveness that descends into resentment. Not a good look, on anyone.
But, there’s a way to ask for what you need and to enlist others in giving it to you, by being respectfully assertive. It requires communicating clearly what your needs are, how others’ behavior affects you, and enlists others in satisfying your needs.
Testimonials
Robin has helped me with personal legal matters ranging from adoption to real estate transactions over the last 6 years. I was impressed with her depth of knowledge and experience in the range of legal matters we worked with her on. I felt confident that Robin was not only giving us top notch legal advice but was also steering us towards options that worked for our family and made the process less stressful, while being efficient at the same time.Michael Blakely-Armitage, Administrator
