SUMMARY:Building and Attacking Wage & Hour Exposure in Mediation: Both Side
 s of the Model
DESCRIPTION:Both Sides of the Model: Building and Attacking Wage &amp\; Hou
 r Exposure in MediationThis webinar puts defense counsel\, plaintiff's cou
 nsel / mediator\, and a wage and hour damages expert on opposite sides of 
 the arguments that decide value in wage and hour class and PAGA mediations
 . The panel will work through how each side builds and attacks the assumpt
 ions behind an exposure model\, including for claims the data cannot readi
 ly prove\, and how disputes over time records\, regular rate\, and derivat
 ive penalties shift the numbers. On settlement\, the discussion covers cur
 rent valuation techniques\, discounting exposure\, the practical effect of
  PAGA reform on negotiations\, and how arbitration and other procedural le
 verage factor into a deal. The panel will also address strategies for stru
 cturing a settlement when the parties are close but not there and include 
 a discussion on the use or non-use of AI in your practice. Attendees will 
 leave understanding how these arguments are built\, where they break down\
 , and what gets both sides to a settlement number.
