Exploring how the practice of law – and the art of persuasion – are evolving
Reuben Mediation founder Tim Reuben recently joined Arthur Rothrock, host of The Litigator’s Path podcast, for a wide-ranging conversation about how technology, experience, and human judgment intersect in today’s legal profession.
Drawing from more than four decades in the courtroom and the mediation room, Reuben shares candid insights on:
- Why AI will never replace lawyers. It’s a powerful tool, but judgment, persuasion, and advocacy remain uniquely human.
- What makes an effective mediator. Great mediators, Reuben argues, are not passive judges but active advocates for resolution—helping parties see risk clearly and find common ground.
- The value of slowing down. In a profession defined by speed, taking time to think critically can lead to better decisions and more creative outcomes.
This engaging discussion offers practical wisdom for litigators, mediators, and anyone interested in how the legal profession continues to evolve.
