What Is MEDIATION?
Mediation is a process in which an impartial third party (the mediator) facilitates communication and negotiation and promotes voluntary decision making by the parties to the dispute. A mediator helps parties understand one another’s perspectives and consider options for settlement. Mediators do not decide who is right and who is wrong. Whether parties choose mediation or a court orders them to try mediation, the decision whether to settle is always up to the parties. The mediator has no authority to impose a settlement on the parties. The process creates a legally binding contract between the parties that remains 100% confidential.
