Mediation
Resolve your dispute through a confidential and professional mediation process.
What is mediation?
Mediation is a voluntary and confidential dispute resolution process in which a neutral third party helps the parties communicate, identify possible solutions, and work toward reaching a mutually acceptable agreement.
The mediator does not impose a decision or act as a judge. The parties themselves retain control over whether to reach an agreement and on what terms.
It is designed for parties who wish to resolve a dispute efficiently, professionally, and without having to go directly to court.
When is mediation useful?
Mediation can be a useful option in disputes related to:
- Commercial matters
- Real estate matters
- Certain family matters, subject to review
Each matter undergoes an initial review to determine whether it is suitable for mediation.
