Mediation is an informal and confidential way for people to resolve disputes with the help of a neutral mediator who is trained to help people discuss their differences and assist them in reaching a settlement. This is usually done outside of the formal court process, through the assistance of a mediator. The mediator does not decide who is right or wrong or issue a decision. Instead, the mediator helps the parties work out their own solutions to problems. Cases suitable for mediation are disputes in commercial transactions, personal injury, construction, workers compensation, labor or community relations, divorce, domestic relations, employment or any other matters which do not involve complex procedural or evidentiary issues
Benefits of Mediation
One of the greatest benefits of mediation is that it allows individuals to have greater control when resolving their
claims. Mediation is fair, efficient and can help the parties avoid a lengthy investigation and litigation.
