Mediation

Mediation is an advisory procedure, rather than an adversarial process. It involves the use of a neutral third party to help resolve a dispute, finding common points of agreement between the parties. Mediation is the most flexible alternative to litigation and is preferred due to its low cost, short sessions and the ability to keep proceedings confidential. The parties jointly control the outcome making mediation even more effective.
