When would I use a Mediator?

Mediation is often useful when two or more parties are at odds with a serious conflict and are unable to settle their dispute on their own. It can be an excellent option when all parties would like to avoid an expensive, time-consuming battle in court.

Mediation happens outside of the courtroom and allows for people to try to resolve their issues without standing in front of a judge. Using a mediator often completely replaces conventional court procedures. Sometimes the parties involved never even need to step into a courtroom. Mediation can also be used to speed up legal resolutions, surpass the trial process and ultimately save people financially from heavy court and attorney fees.
