Frequently Asked Questions

Mediation is a voluntary, confidential process where a neutral third-party mediator helps disputing parties reach a mutually agreeable resolution. During mediation, the mediator facilitates open communication between the parties, guiding them toward a solution that both sides can agree on, without the need for court intervention. The goal is to reach a settlement that satisfies everyone involved.

Mediation is typically faster, less formal, and more cost-effective than litigation. Unlike court, where a judge makes the final decision, mediation allows the parties to retain control over the outcome. It’s a more collaborative process, focused on finding common ground, rather than assigning blame or imposing legal judgments.
