Let’s face it, most people don’t know how to approach conflict constructively, or they avoid it altogether. Mediation allows parties to approach the issues in a methodical, rational, and harmonious way.

​

WHAT IS MEDIATION? 

Mediation is a process where a third-party neutral facilitates communication between two or more parties with conflicting interests. The process is consensual and confidential. Parties can confidently sit and reason with the mediator and one another to creatively figure out solutions that meet everyone's needs.  

​

Unlike litigation or arbitration, the mediator is neither a fact-finder nor an adjudicator. The parties are the ones who make the decisions, they determine whether there is an agreement and what the terms are. The mediator assists everyone with crafting the outcome and empowers parties to exercise their self-determination.
