General counsel who avoid mediation are omitting a powerful instrument from their legal toolbox, according to a recently published book. “Financial Services Mediation Answer Book,” edited by mediator Layn Phillips, attorney Pierre Gentin, mediator Jill Sperber and in-house counsel Lindsay Goldstein.
Co-editor Gentin is the former head of global litigation and regulatory investigations for Swiss-based Credit Suisse bank (where he worked with Goldstein) and is now a partner in the litigation group at Cahill Gordon & Reindel in New York.
