Drawing on more than 25 years of experience and over 1,000 successfully resolved mediations, this session offers attorneys a rare, behind-the-scenes look at the mediation process from the perspective of a seasoned former federal mediator. Through engaging real-world examples and practical insights, participants will learn some strategies to better navigate emotional dynamics, difficult personalities, and identify the critical moments that shape settlement outcomes. The presentation challenges common litigation mindsets and equips attorneys with tools to become more effective in representing clients in or mediating employment, civil rights, education, or other high-stakes disputes.
Andres Ramirez is a seasoned mediator with a passion for helping people find common ground, even in the most challenging situations. With over 26 years of experience as a federal mediator, he has resolved more than 1,000 disputes—ranging from complex education discrimination and sexual violence allegations to employment issues, antisemitism, and disability claims—always with professionalism, empathy, and a steady hand.
Now, he has launched Andres A Ramirez Mediation to continue doing what he loves: guiding people through conflict with integrity, cultural sensitivity, and results-driven solutions. He also provides Title IX and special education facilitation and mediation, as well as training for educators, attorneys, and administrators who want to handle disputes more effectively and with confidence.
Colleagues and clients often describe him as calm, naturally optimistic, confident, and skilled at diffusing tense situations with clarity and quiet charm. He believes in the power of listening, and he is committed to helping parties move from conflict to resolution with dignity and mutual respect.
