"Refresh my memory: Are you my lawyer or my lawyer's lawyer?"

"Here's what I'm gonna do."

'Which 'win' is ours? Because the one on the left looks bigger.'

'I'm glad you guys could work this out in a reasonable manner.'

'This is my partner. He'll be taking care of the small print.'

"The meeting will come to order."

'We're making progress. I just got a firm 'maybe'.'

"What if he's bluffing? What if he's not? What if the room just gets too hot?"

'The toughest things you have to deal with in this job, is feelings and lawyers.'

'Pick a contract...any contract!'

'Upset at you for breaching the non-compete? Of course not.'

'Make them a four billion dollar takeover offer, but don't cause a fuss.'

'And I want that end table for $40...' When bargain hunters crack.

'I'm 60-40 in favor of the 60.'

'I'm interested in your job opening, so I'll have my agent give you a ring!'

"Whaddya want for nineteen mil?"

"He'll never win this negotiation. He's saddled with numbers...but we have anecdotes."

"Is this about your raise?"

'I hope you made the prospect say no three times before you gave up.'

Mediation Process

'This is a business lunch, Lowden. So, don't even think about enjoying yourself.'
