HOW DOES MEDIATION WORK?
Mediation involves an impartial third party, or mediator, who meets with you and the person or organization you’re in conflict with. The mediator helps both of you to identify the issues in the dispute, devise and evaluate options for a resolution, and identify ways in which the parties can reach a settlement agreement. The ultimate goal of mediation is a final, written agreement or Memorandum of Understanding. Whether you are under a court order to mediate or you are voluntarily mediating, you are not required to reach an agreement during mediation and you as the participants have full control over any settlement.
