“How to Catapult Your Mediation, Arbitration and Negotiation Skills to the Next Level So You Can Enjoy Greater Success, Be More Effective and Make More Money”

Dear Friend,
If you want to take your mediation and arbitration skills to the next level, so you can…
If you want to take your mediation and arbitration skills to the next level, so you can…
- Be the best neutral you can be…
- Serve your clients at a higher level and with greater confidence (and no more imposter syndrome!)
- Resolve disputes more quickly — and in a way that’s fair to everyone involved…
- Enjoy the satisfaction, respect and prestige that comes with a successful neutral practice…
- Become a thought leader and position yourself to get on bigger panels…
…then this could be the most important letter you read all year.
Here’s why:
Many of the neutrals I talk to worry about whether or not they’re doing all they can for their clients…
…fear that they’re falling short of achieving all they could with their career…
...and are unclear on how to best improve their knowledge and skills so they can do more for their clients and advance their careers further.
The problem is, until now there hasn’t been an easy, affordable and time-efficient way for you…
…to get straight-from-the-trenches advice and information that can help you level up your skills…
…to stay up-to-date on what the latest research says about how to be a more effective negotiator in every situation you face…
…or to connect with experienced neutrals in a convenient and comfortable way so they can help you with even the most difficult challenges you face.
And all that has slowed down your career progress… stopped you from becoming the best neutral you can be… and has made things harder than they need to be.

Unmatched Guidance to Help You Make Massive Progress Faster Than You Ever Thought Possible
The good news is, starting today you can turn it all around In just 15-30 minutes a week by accepting this invitation to join ADR Times Premium — my members-only site for neutrals who want to make fast progress towards their goals and become more effective and successful.
However, before I tell you what it’s all about, please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Mark Fotohabadi and I’ve been helping neutrals level up their skills and achieve greater success in our profession for more than 12 years.
It all started in 2010 soon after I was awarded a Masters in Dispute Resolution from Pepperdine University’s renowned Straus Institute for Dispute Resolution.
One of my professors — the late Tim Pownall — and I started a nationwide ADR provider called, fittingly enough, the Agency for Dispute Resolution.
It was more successful than we could have dreamed and we quickly found ourselves helping place 300 neutrals in mediations and arbitrations. We also became the exclusive strategic alliance partner of the Association of Corporate Counsel (ACC) for dispute resolution.
At the same time, we also started the ADR Times blog — a place to share our research and experience with our fellow neutrals — and it quickly became one of the most popular ADR blogs on the planet.
I was also fortunate enough to be invited to share my expertise with students as a lecturer at both Cal State Fullerton’s College of Business and Economics and Cal Poly Pomona’s College of Business Administration.
While I sold the Agency for Dispute Resolution in 2018, the blog has continued. However, I recently decided to launch ADR Times Premium — a vastly upgraded membership program that delivers even more valuable content and also offers a community component so our members can get help and support from their fellow neutrals.

You also get Weekly Live Group Mentoring to Help You
Every week, I host an exclusive members-only 30-minute power-webinar. We’ll do a deep dive into topics of importance to neutrals, address special issues our members are dealing with, solve challenges you’re facing and answer your questions.
All of it designed to give you the immediate guidance and help you need to make rapid progress.
And don’t worry if you miss a webinar, because we’ll record them and then place them in the membership area for you to watch at your convenience.
My goal is to create a juggernaut of neutrals who want to make the world a better place, create more “win-win-win” outcomes and, of course, achieve success.
I suspect you’ll find these deep dive webinars to be the most valuable aspect of your membership.

$100 Gift Certificate Towards a One Hour Consultation Call
Many neutrals have inquired about my availability to help them personally. Unfortunately, between my college teaching commitments, running ADR Times Premium and finding a few hours a week to spend with my family, I have very little time for consulting even at my $500 an hour rate.
However, I’ve decided to offer a limited number of paid consultations exclusively to members of ADR Times Premium just to make sure you have everything you need.
And when you join today I’ll give you a $100 gift certificate you can use any time over the next year to save on a one-hour consultation. That way you pay just $400 instead of my regular $500 rate.

Rave Reviews for Mark Fotohabadi and ADR Times
“Inspiration for the next generation of mediators and thought leaders”
“Both Mark Fotohabadi and the late Timothy Pownall have created a platform that will capture the best lessons of our past while providing inspiration for the next generation of mediators and thought leaders. I had the distinct pleasure of teaching with Mr. Pownall at the Straus Institute at Pepperdine University and can only imagine how proud he would be of ADR Times’ success. I know I will embrace this relationship with ADR Times going forward as we collaborate on ways to elevate mediation and arbitration in our country.

“Many great techniques for resolving disputes fairly”
“I took Dr. Mark Fotohabadi’s graduate Negotiation course at Cal State Fullerton and it was one of my favorites. He taught me the value of ‘win-win’ negotiations and taught me many great techniques for resolving disputes fairly which comes handy in my day-to-day customer care role at Behr Paint too. I have no doubt his course has directly improved my negotiating skills. I also want to add that Dr. Fotohabadi is a great teacher and I enjoyed getting to know him.”

“I’m already a better negotiator”
“While getting my Bachelor’s Degree in economics and business from Germany’s University of Tübingen, I had the opportunity to spend a semester studying at California State University, Fullerton in the United States. It was an enriching experience and I’m especially grateful for Dr. Mark Fotohabadi and his excellent MBA course on Advanced Negotiation. It was interesting and even fun. I learned so much in this course and I’m already a better negotiator thanks to Dr. Fotohabadi.”
