In Part 2 of our series on navigating the mediation process, Tom is sharing essential tips to set you up for a successful mediation or negotiation experience before an administrative body. If you have a sexual harassment case or disability discrimination, you're going to have to file before one of these administrative bodies before you can file in court.
In this episode, you will learn about the different administrative bodies, both state and federal, that have jurisdiction over employment law claims. And in many instances, depending on what kind of claim you have or what happened, you have to file what's called a charge with an administrative body.

Learn about the EEOC's requirement for settlement authority and the potential challenges surrounding its enforcement. We'll also explore the possibility of uncooperative employers sending representatives without settlement authority and whether it's worth your time and effort to proceed with mediation in such cases.
This episode will help you understand the role of mediators and the importance of presenting key evidence to gain their support. We will unpack the employee-friendly nature of settlement agreements at the EEOC and why filing with administrative bodies may be crucial before pursuing court action.
