Abstract

This paper argues that a major task for lawyers in succession disputes, negotiations and mediations is to assist clients make wise decisions in the face of uncertainty. This requires preparation. A short preparation model of five humble hypotheses is set out. Normally, these should be discussed with any mediator well before a mediation takes place. Example precedent preparation forms are attached.
