Mediation & Arbitration
Our Mediators & Arbitrators use a variety of ADR techniques to help the people resolve matters in a neutral, efficient and controlled manner. In mediation, the mediator, acting as a neutral, helps people who disagree try to reach a mutually acceptable resolution. The mediator does not decide the case but facilitates the discussions. In arbitration, the arbitrator renders a binding decision. Arbitration is a private and less costly alternative to the public and more formal nature of court proceedings. For some clients and circumstances, Med/Arb is also an option. In Med/Arb, the parties first work towards a mutually acceptable outcome. If they are not able to agree, then the neutral issues a final binding decision.
