Description: "This book is designed to teach lawyers, litigants, neutrals, judges, court program administrators, and public policy analysts what Early Neutral Evaluation (ENE) consists of, why and under what circumstances it might be used most productively, the differences between it and mediation (in the forms most commonly encountered by litigants and lawyers), and how clients, litigators, and neutrals have assessed the value of ENE. Because these materials explicate all the elements of the ENE process in considerable detail, they enable potential users or consumers of ENE services to understand the process and its potential at a sophisticated level. Thus, the book equips lawyers and clients alike to decide more reliabilty when to uses ENE and how to participate in an ENE process most effectively"--Introduction, p. 1.
