Mediation
CONTACT US NOW

Mediation is a form of alternative dispute resolution. It is a process for resolving disputes by which an independent, neutral mediator assists parties in reaching a mutually satisfactory settlement. The mediation process is entirely voluntary and non-binding.

Advantages

  • Confidential. Mediation proceedings and results are private (i.e., not available to the court as a public record)
  • Greater control over the outcome
  • Voluntary
  • Convenience
  • Reduced Costs
  • Faster outcome
  • Preservation of Relationships
  • More creative remedies are available to parties in mediation than in litigation
  • It is possible to mediate without an attorney (other than the mediator, who may be an attorney)

Disadvantages

  • Party cannot be compelled to participate, except when ordered by Court
  • Party with authority to settle is unavailable or unwilling to negotiate
  • May not be cost effective in a particular case
  • Opposing ​counsel is difficult
