An Experienced, Knowledgeable and Balanced Mediator for Personal Injury Mediation
In 1992, the Indiana Supreme Court enacted Rules of Alternative Dispute Resolution in an effort to provide litigants with avenues to informally resolve their disputes without the necessity of going to trial. Although various forms of alternative dispute resolution are recognized by the Supreme Court, mediation is the most popular process among litigants, attorneys and judges.
In mediation, the parties appear before a mediator, who is selected by the attorneys representing the parties or appointed by the trial court. The mediator is a neutral third party who assists the litigants and their attorneys in reaching an amicable resolution of their dispute without incurring the risks, costs and time involved with taking a case to trial. The majority of Indiana trial courts now require litigants to go through mediation in personal injury cases, and mediation has proven to be a very effective means for resolving these cases.
Attorney Mark Scott is frequently selected by attorneys to serve as a mediator in personal injury cases. Over the course of the last two decades, Mr. Scott has confined his practice to personal injury litigation and he has tried numerous cases to a verdict. Beyond his trial experience, Mr. Scott is also a frequent author and lecturer on subjects pertaining to tort law and civil mediation, so he is very knowledgeable about the issues which often arise in personal injury cases. Mr. Scott is respected and trusted by both plaintiff and defense lawyers throughout the state, and he mediates cases with a fair and balanced approach to help parties arrive at mutually-agreeable resolutions to their disputes.
