Why Mediation Works For You
Mediation is a type of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR). ADR simply means finding a way to resolve a conflict without going through the formal, expensive and stressful court process.
- You Keep The Power – In litigation, you turn the power over to a stranger – a judge or jury – who decides your future. In mediation, you keep control over your case, your fortune and your future. Our qualified mediators guide the negotiation, but you make the final decisions. This removes the massive risk and stress of a trial.
- You Save Time And Money – Most cases filed in court settle anyway. Unfortunately, that settlement often comes only after parties spend huge amounts of time and money fighting. Instead of waiting six months, a year or more for a trial date, you can resolve your case through mediation. You can settle your case often within weeks of arranging a session. While you pay a fee for the mediator, the money you save on litigation (lawyer fees, court fees, lost work time) typically covers that cost and more. Mediation is just a fraction of the expense of taking a matter to trial.
- You Focus On Tomorrow, Not Yesterday – A trial focuses only on what happened in the past. A judge’s ruling is limited by the letter of the law. In contrast, mediation looks toward the future. More so, mediated solutions are not limited by legal remedies. They are flexible and easily fit the circumstances of your individual life or business.
What Mediation Is And How We Help
Mediation is best viewed as facilitated negotiation. It is a strictly voluntary and confidential process where a trained, neutral professional (the mediator) moderates discussions between the disputing parties.
Here is how our mediators guide you:
- Neutral guidance: Our mediators are veteran trial attorneys who have undergone formal training. They use their understanding to provide simple explanations of legal elements, but never offer legal advice or advocate for one side.
- Full confidentiality: The mediation process is strictly confidential. Any facts or offers shared during mediation are generally inadmissible in court if the case does not settle. This lets you communicate and solve problems without fear.
- Separate sessions (caucuses): Depending on the case and personal style, the mediator may meet with the parties separately. This helps all parties express themselves freely and assists the mediator in moving both sides toward a resolution.
- Binding agreements: When an agreement is reached, it becomes an enforceable contract. This can become a court order or judgment without a trial.
Our mediators work hard to help you reach a final, judicially enforceable agreement.
Modern Solutions: Online Dispute Resolution (ODR)
We know that time and travel often create extra burdens. To keep our services accessible and affordable, we offer Online Dispute Resolution (ODR).
ODR allows you to take part in mediation remotely using video conferencing. This option offers flexibility and convenience, making the path to resolution even quicker.
