Mediation is more cost effective and resolves disputes more quickly than going to court. It’s flexible and can be used in situations where litigation is not practical.

It’s also an excellent preventative tool and can be used to help avoid disputes arising.

Mediation allows you to be heard. You have a chance to tell your side of the story without being interrupted. In many cases an apology is all that is required to solve a dispute.

In mediation, you can represent yourself, rather than having a lawyer speak for you.

Mediation hands you control of the process – you decide on the solution. Agreements reached in this way are often more successful than those handed down in court.

Mediation happens quickly, and is more affordable than litigation. It allows you to rebuild relationships and move on – unlike the legal process where hostility often remains after the case is over.
