Weiss said that experts in the field note the event as “ground-breaking” as a comprehensive analysis of Trust and Conflict in a symposium setting is unprecedented.

“I’m very proud that we will be able to show off some of the very best of Northeast Ohio to some of the very best neutrals in the world,” said Weiss, who is also an adjunct professor at the CWRU School of Law.
