This segment covers the unique aspects of mediating PAGA claims and class actions, often in the same case. Issues addressed include what to do when an employer tries to enter into individual settlement agreements pre-mediation with putative class members, whether to ask for a sampling of employee contact information, whether to circulate a draft MOU before the mediation, and what data/documents are essential to a meaningful mediation, and persuading the Court that the parties have performed their due diligence for the fairness hearing (Kullar analysis).
This training is created with a focus on Attorney Mediators.
Barry Appell has 28 years of experience in employment litigation, representing both employees and employers in trials, appeals, arbitrations, and administrative hearings. He also has expertise in conducting workplace trainings, investigations, and preparing handbooks while advising employers on compliance with employment laws. Barry began mediating in 2018 and left his law practice in 2021 to focus on mediation full-time. From 1994 to 2004, he solely represented employers, and from 2004 to 2021, he represented both employees and employers, primarily advocating for employees. His wide-ranging experience allows him to understand disputes from both perspectives, which, combined with his straightforward approach, has led to a high success rate in resolving cases.
