Mediation Services

Parties prepare, set rules, negotiate solutions, agree, and sign legally.

Preparation Period

Once the parties have chosen a mediator, they will either submit a written summary of the issues along with relevant documents to the mediator, or they will arrange a pre-mediation meeting to discuss the issues and plan the mediation structure. At this stage, it is crucial to agree on which individuals from each party will participate in the mediation and confirm that they have the authority to resolve the disputed matters.

Initial Meeting and Issue Identification

During the initial meeting, the mediator wil set ground rules, allowing each party to outline their objectives and voice their concerns. The mediator will make certain that everyone has the opportunity ot present their viewpoint and highlight the issues most significant ot them. Together, they will pinpoint the main topics for discussion and determine their priority.

Interactive Dialogue and Negotiation

The mediator will conduct both collaborative brainstorming sessions and individual meetings with each party to explore various solutions. With the mediator’s assistance, the parties will actively seek common ground and build consensus on each issue, engaging in a constructive negotiation process.

Agreement, Resolution and Closure

With the assistance of the mediator, the parties will seek to identify shared interests and reach a consensus on all issues. Once a mutual understanding is achieved, the mediator facilitates the drafting of a detailed agreement that specifies the responsibilities and terms agreed upon by each party. The parties then review this document to confirm that it accurately reflects their intentions, making any revisions as needed. Once all parties are content with the terms, they sign the agreement, which then becomes legally binding.
