In the field of cutthroat litigators, representing bitter ex-employees and neighbors disputing lot lines, Ms. Schau was looking for an outlet to convert her skills in advocacy into a more positive champion for peace. So began the journey towards a new career and new outlook on a different way of resolving legal disputes: mediation.
Since beginning her mediation practice in 2003, Ms. Schau has mediated over 1000 legal disputes in the areas of business, employment and torts. She has earned recognition as a California Super Lawyer for 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 and is a Distinguished Fellow of the International Academy of Mediators. She is also the Past President of the Southern California Mediation Association.
Ms. Schau practiced law for over twenty years, beginning her career in Insurance Defense and ultimately representing employees who claimed they had been wrongfully treated in their jobs. She earned her Undergraduate Degree in International Relations from Pomona College in Claremont, California and her Juris Doctor from Loyola Law School in Los Angeles.
The author resides in Los Angeles, California, with her husband of 34 years. Together, they have raised a daughter and two sons. Ms. Schau credits her children with providing her first laboratory for developing mediation skills, as they were all teenagers when she began. She has always enjoyed creative writing and has authored numerous scholarly articles for local Bar Magazines and the Los Angeles Daily Journal.
The stories in this book arise out of actual mediations. As creative a writer as Ms. Schau is, she could not have invented a more lively set of facts than those in this book.ver menos
