How It Works
The Mediation Process
Mediation is a voluntary, confidential process where a neutral third party helps disputing parties reach a mutually acceptable resolution. It is faster, less expensive, and less adversarial than litigation.
Initial Contact
Parties or their attorneys reach out to schedule mediation. A convenient date and format are established for all participants.
Case Review
Each party submits a confidential mediation summary. The mediator reviews all materials to understand the issues, interests, and positions involved.
Mediation Session
Joint and private sessions allow each party to present their perspective. The mediator facilitates productive dialogue and helps identify common ground.
Resolution
When agreement is reached, the terms are documented in a written settlement. If no agreement is reached, all discussions remain confidential.
