A19,

I've participated in dozens of construction mediations, though never as the mediator; you've described to a "T" what my experience has been as well with regard to the successful mediation process.

The mediator said a successful outcome to a mediation is when all the parties are dissatisfied with the outcome, but deep down know it was fair and realistic.

I've often heard that a fair settlement is one that leaves everyone a bit uncomfortable. From a mediator's perspective, that's probably a good rule of thumb. From a lawyer's perspective, the client had better be satisfied with the outcome on some level or the lawyer will hear about it again in less pleasant circumstances. <NG>

Good for you for resolving your dispute. I guess that made for a happy birthday indeed.
