Mediation-Sumitra vs Suchit and Sunil
FACTS
Introduction of the Counsel-
I am Hrishikesh Jaiswal, I like people calling me Hrishi, I will be representing the
interest of Mrs. Sumitra Kumar
Thank the other team for coming on to this table and discussing.
I hope that we able to reach an agreement that meets the needs of both parties.
I am a designated Senior advocate at the Allahabad high Court and an empaneled
negotiator at the International Institute of Commerce and Property.
I have had attended various mediation sessions before with a good track record.
Other pleasantries-
It is very noble of the Honble Supreme Court to suggest this matter for mediation, the
reason I say so is that in the recent times Mediation has seen a more than 70% of success
rate
Also the importance of confidentiality is known to all, all the talks that happen here are
limited to this virtual room
I must say that I am here in a facilitative capacity and have been given the authority to
have discussions with you, but all the final decisions and agreements will be done by my
client.
I must give a caveat here that we are not here to get entangled into laws.
