Seven Reasons To Mediate
In many civil disputes, our adversarial legal system does not offer satisfactory results. Litigation costs are high, the courts are overcrowded, and judgments often seem unjust. I believe mediation offers you better solutions for the following seven reasons.
MEDIATION SAVES TIME AND MONEY: Most mediation sessions are concluded in one day instead of months, or even years, for the typical lawsuit. With these time savings you also save costs.
MEDIATION IS NEUTRAL: You and the other parties have an equal say in the process. You determine the solutions, not a judge or lawyer or mediator. The process is fair and without prejudice.
MEDIATION IS CONFIDENTIAL: Information disclosed in mediation is for settlement purposes only and cannot be used against you at a later time. In fact, all participants in the mediation sign a confidentiality agreement. This makes it safe to propose new ideas that can lead to new solutions without fear.
MEDIATION CAN REBUILD RELATIONSHIPS: Mediation provides the opportunity to clear the air and put problems behind you. It can encourage the restoration long-term working relationships that are in your best interest.
MEDIATION IMPROVES COMMUNICATION: Mediation takes place in a low-risk environment where open discussions are encouraged. Respectful and constructive communications take place in less stressful, familiar surroundings.
MEDIATION AVOIDS LITIGATION: Lawsuits and uncertain outcomes can be avoided altogether. You do not have to go to court and you control the outcome.
MEDIATION ALLOWS YOU TO DESIGN THE SOLUTION: You and the other party resolve your issues by reaching a voluntary, mutually beneficial agreement. Mediation allows you to settle all underlying issues, not just the legal ones.
A skilled mediator can assist you in resolving just about any legal problem you may have. National statistics indicate that more than 75% of mediations settle all problems in less than a day. Mediation works and everyone wins.
