Mediation

Mediation is a non-binding voluntary settlement process in which a neutral third party (the mediator) facilitates communication and negotiation between the parties. Mediation can preserve relationships and can help build a positive framework for future interactions based upon mutual interest so similar problems can be resolved in the future. Mediation poses no risk since no one can force a decision on them. A mediator has no authority to force a settlement on the parties. Instead the mediator helps the parties try to reach a mutually agreeable settlement. A mediator will not disclose any information to the opposing side without consent. If a settlement cannot be reached, the parties are free to pursue other legal remedies.
