Mediation is a well established, cost-effective, fair, efficient, and confidential process for resolving disagreements. The Mediator, as an impartial third party, helps people in the dispute find a mutually acceptable resolution. The Mediator helps the parties discuss difficult issues and negotiate an agreement. Unlike court, in mediation, the decision-making authority rests with the parties t

hemselves. Benefits of Mediation
There are many benefits to Mediation vs. Litigation; some of these include:
Cost Effective - Mediation is much less expensive than litigation or other more adversarial approaches to conflict resolution, and it’s legally binding. Participants are Much More Satisfied -Mediation parties participate in the process not just their representative. The parties make all decisions together. Reducing the Human Cost of Conflict - A quicker, less expensive solution that both parties agree to, versus being imposed upon them, is always less stressful than the alternative. Greater Compliance -The parties who come to a mutually acceptable solution are much more likely to comply than when an edict is mandated from an outside, disinterested party. Timely / Expedited Negotiation -Rather than wait months for a court date, let alone a final solution, Mediation provides a much shorter resolution time frame; usually just weeks. Privacy - Court proceedings are a matter of public record. Mediation is a private and confidential process of which outcomes (agreements) are legally binding. More Flexible and Customized Solutions - There are no rules or protocols that necessarily need to be followed. While the law should be addressed, the procedure to comply with applicable legal guidelines is up to the parties to mutually decide, not a judge or arbitrator. Taking Control of the Process, More impact on Outcome - Parties who negotiate their own settlements have more control over the outcome of their dispute. This gives parties an opportunity for discussion, with a resolution by mutual agreement. Gains and losses are more predictable in a mediated settlement than in a case that is arbitrated or adjudicated (Court). A Way of Preserving a More Amicable Relationship Despite the Conflict - Mediation’s future focus can help parties move forward in preserving or restoring a workable relationship.
