Why Mediate?
There are several great reasons to choose mediation, including:
- Mediation provides a private, safe forum to try to resolve
disputes fairly and efficiently.
- Mediation enables parties to maintain control over the
outcome of a dispute. A judge or jury does not dictate
what you have to do, how much or you have to pay, or
how little you get to receive.
- Mediation decreases legal fees. It helps parties avoid
litigation costs. It resolves issues more efficiently and
effectively than traditional litigation or arbitration. Having a
lawyer, although recommended, is not necessary to
participate in mediation.
- Mediation is a confidential process. Unlike in litigation,
mediation does not result in public documents. All
communications are kept confidential. Parties, including
the mediator, sign confidentiality agreements at the
beginning of the mediation.
- Mediation saves time. Disputes are often resolved in one
day, avoiding long and protracted litigation.
- Mediation organizes issues related to the dispute. Even
if mediation does not result in a settlement or resolution, it
can help the parties uncover and organize issues for future
negotiations and settlement talks.
- Mediation is more collaborative and less contentious
than litigation. Mediation is often the best way to resolve
a dispute if there is a personal, business or employment
relationship that needs to be maintained.
- Mediation often results in positive, creative solutions
that cannot be achieved through arbitration or litigation.
