WHAT DOES THE MEDIATOR DO?
... by conducting the process, the mediator helps you to
communicate more clearly and openly; to identify and discuss
the issues that are important to you; to clarify your expectations;
to develop new options for solving the problems, and to
reach mutually satisfactory negotiated agreements.
WHAT DO YOU DO?
… through the assistance of the Mediator, each party will listen to one another,
focus on the problem, and constructively communicate to work through the issues
to your satisfaction.
WHO MAKES THE DECISIONS?
… you, in cooperation with the other party. You remain in
control of the outcome by defining the solution and negotiating an agreement.
DO I FORFEIT ANY RIGHTS
BY CHOOSING MEDIATION?
... No, by agreeing to Mediate you are not precluded from
obtaining legal counsel or other advice, nor is any other
path of resolution or support removed.
WHY MEDIATION?
…because you decide the outcome -- not a disinterested judge, jury or
third party! You control the timing! The process is confidential, flexible
and cost efficient. 97% of civil cases will settle prior to legal adjudication.
The earlier you resolve the dispute -- the more time, money, and effort you save. Mutually
acceptable mediated agreements produce high rates of compliance. They can
cover procedural and psychological issues and they are geared to implementation.
