Why Mediation Works

Mediation works because each party involved is fully heard. The parties’ concerns and needs are addressed and met through the settlement agreement they reach. It is their own agreement, not one created or imposed on them by others. Therefore, it is much more likely to be a lasting settlement than if imposed by a court, hearing officer or arbitrator. We like to think of this as developing a do-able and durable agreement.

Call us today and we will explain how mediation works, guide you through a simple intake process over the phone, match you with trained mediators and most importantly, we will listen.
