What Is Mediation?
Assisting parties to identify options and negotiate an agreement to resolve disputes.
Mediation Explained
Mediation is a confidential and cost effective method of alternative dispute resolution. The process allows parties to express their concerns and feel heard in safe environment, and encourages them to explore the underlying issues for a deeper, shared understanding of the other parties’ position in order to find appropriate solutions.
Mediators do not provide parties with legal advice. Their role is to impartially facilitate discussion and exploration of the issues, and party-led generation of options for negotiation and resolution. The decision making power remains in the hands of the parties. This ensures the parties are empowered to formulate more creative solutions than if a third party or judicial officer makes the decision for them.
