Mediation is a cooperative process for resolving conflict. A mediator is a trained, neutral third party who assists the process by facilitating communication, helping define issues, and identifying and negotiating fair solutions that are mutually agreeable. The mediation process is a personalized process based on the fundamental principles of safety,
self-determination, procedural informality, privacy, confidentiality, and full disclosure of relevant information between the parties.
Mediation sessions can take place in person or remotely.
Our mediators are trained to assist in developing parenting plans and separation agreements for families and couples who are seeking divorce or separation.
We specialize in eviction mediation for landlords and tenants desiring to come to an agreement before completing the eviction process. We are also trained mediators in personal and professional disputes.
Basics about Mediation
Mediation can be voluntary or court-ordered. A legal dispute can be settled through mediation at any point in the process by either party. Court-ordered mediation occurs after a case has been filed in an attempt to resolve certain disputes between the parties. Litigation can be avoided if the parties are able to reach an agreement on their own.
In family and parenting disputes, the Court presumes the parents are in the best position to determine their children’s best interests, and all resources are exhausted to help parties agree on their children’s best interests before the Court makes that determination.
