What is mediation?
Mediation is a voluntary process where a trained neutral third party helps people in conflict negotiate a mutually acceptable agreement. Mediation offers a more affordable and less adversarial alternative to going to court.
Benefits of Mediation
Confidential Process
Unlike court proceedings, mediation is private and confidential, allowing for more open communication.
Faster Resolution
Mediation sessions can often be scheduled within weeks, compared to months or years for court cases.
Control Over Outcome
Parties maintain decision-making power rather than having a solution imposed by a judge or arbitrator.
