In this video, Rick Morefield of Sage Mediation Solutions explains why the honesty requirement in ABA Formal Opinion 518 aligns directly with how effective mediation already works. Trust is the core mechanic of negotiation. When parties believe the mediator is truthful, neutral, and reliable, the process becomes more efficient, more productive, and more satisfying for clients.

You will learn practical points such as:
• Why trust is essential to productive mediation outcomes
• How party misconceptions often come from untrained or directive mediators
• Why evaluative feedback is appropriate, but settlement decisions belong to the parties
• How neutrality, confidentiality, truthfulness, and self-determination function as mediation guardrails

You will also hear how directive behavior from mediators can undermine the process, disrespect the parties, and erode confidence in negotiation. By staying within clear ethical guardrails, mediators preserve party autonomy and protect the integrity of the process.
