When Mediation Can Help


The Law Can't Help

Many types of common disputes simply do not raise a legal claim that you can take to court. Such as disputes between family members, employees or neighbors. Fortunately, mediation is available even when courts are not.


You Want to End a Problem, Not a Relationship

Does your dispute involve another person with whom--either by choice or circumstance, you need to remain on good terms? Lawsuits end relationships.

A huge advantage of mediation is its ability to get a dispute resolved without destroying a relationship.


Good Candidates For Mediation
  • Business partners who can't agree on how to run, or dissolve, the business.

  • Two small businesses disputing over customer lists.

  • A landlord and tenant arguing over a security deposit.

  • A homeowner who is unsatisfied with a contractor's work.

  • Divorced parents trying to agree on child custody and visitation.

  • A married or unmarried couple who are separating and need to divide valuable household items.

  • A consumer with a complaint against a merchant.

You Want to Minimize Costs

Mediation is almost always far cheaper than litigation. A dispute that may take $20,000 per party to resolve in court typically costs less than $2,000 per party to mediate.

You're in a Hurry

Lawsuits are incredibly time-consuming; it's not at all uncommon for them to drag on for years. Mediation, on the other hand, can be begun at almost anytime, and it may take only a few hours. Even small consumer disputes that might take three months or so to resolve in small claims court can be disposed of far more quickly in mediation.


You're Having Difficulty With Negotiation

Sometimes you may hope to negotiate a fair settlement to a dispute, but are just not able to get the attention of the other side to start the process. For example, maybe the other party is a large company or government agency that refuses to negotiate with individuals. Or maybe you fear you have poor negotiating skills or are a little intimidated by the other party.
