What is mediation?
Mediation is a process in which an impartial third party (the mediator) facilitates communication and negotiation and promotes voluntary decision making by the parties to the dispute. In mediation, a mediator helps parties understand each others’ perspectives and discuss options for settlement.
Mediators do not decide who is right and who is wrong. Whether parties choose mediation or a court orders them to try mediation, the decision whether to settle is always up to the parties. The mediator has no authority to impose a settlement on the parties.
BENEFITS OF MEDIATION
- Voluntary Process- The parties stay in control and determine the outcome.
- Reduced Time and Expense- Mediation can often be concluded in a single day.
- Improved Skills and Relationships -Suring mediation you will learn to communicate in a cooperative manner following the breakdown of a relationship.
- Effective - The vast majority of mediated matters reach settlement.
- Confidentiality- Mediation communications are confidential and cannot be shared. Parties can discuss matters freely without the details being open to the public.
