We're going into a settlement meeting with no plan
No sense of what to concede, what to hold, or what each head is actually worth.
What's happening?
Settlement meetings reward preparation over conviction. Walking in with a single number and a mood means every concession is improvised, the first hour is spent discovering your own position, and the side that arrives with a worked-out matrix trades their weak items for your strong ones - politely, one at a time.
The matrix is the preparation: every open head listed with its value, its evidential strength, your walk-away and your target, so concessions are planned trades rather than pressure responses, and the running total is visible mid-meeting instead of discovered afterwards. Filled in honestly, it also answers the question that decides settlements: which items you would rather trade than prove. The template holds the shape; assembling the account behind it is the service's job.
The solution
Every head valued and ranked before the room.
If you would rather it were done for you, Final Account Assembly, Negotiation & Agreement is the service that does it.
