5. ADDING ATTORNEY INFORMATION

When the page refreshes, MIMS will give you additional options to complete the process of entering a new case for a mediation. Those options include the name of the plaintiff’s attorney and the defendant’s attorney. Click on the party that each attorney represents (i.e. Plaintiff, Defendant) before entering the attorney name associated with that party.

Type in the attorney’s first name in the first box and the attorney’s last name in the second box and then click the Find and Add button. If the attorney’s name is already in the MIMS database (because the attorney served as counsel in a prior mediation), MIMS automatically finds the name of the attorney and adds the name to this entry.

If the attorney’s name is not in the database, the screen below appears. Click Add Attorney to add the name of the attorney to the database.
