Where the parties are represented by lawyers, the mediator may ask the lawyer to prepare ''mediation briefs''. Mediation briefs are summaries of the parties' relationship and each party's position and, when a position is legally complex or technical, an explanation of the law or facts supporting that position. The lawyers will give copies of their briefs to each other and to the mediator ahead of the first mediation session.
