Before the settlement conference is held, parties are required to complete all examinations for discovery, produce all of the required documents and complete any related motions.

Your lawyer will prepare a brief with a detailed outline of the evidence you will be leading at trial. This will include key passages from the transcripts from the examination for discovery, important medical records and expert reports. The brief will also identify the witnesses you intend to call at trial and what they will say at trial.

You will likely meet with your lawyer before the settlement conference to discuss your settlement position and any developments in the case that arise from the defence lawyer ' s settlement conference brief.
