FAQ

What is Mediation?

Mediation or Alternative Dispute Resolution allows individuals or organisations who are involved in a dispute to work together towards resolving their differences.

Is Mediation expensive?

Mediation is significantly less expensive than going to court. By using an independent Mediator the cost is shared by both parties.

How long does Mediation take?

There is no exact answer, it all depends on the unique needs of the parties involved. As a rule of thumb we usually ask clients to set aside at least 4 hours for initial meetings.

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.
