Frequently Asked Questions:

What is Mediation?

In Mediation, a qualified neutral person (the Mediator) facilitates communication between the parties to promote settlement.  A mediator may not impose his or her own judgment on the issues for either party. Mediation is based on the principle of self-determination by the parties in order to voluntarily reach agreement.  The participants, rather than the Mediator, are responsible resolving the issues and for shaping a settlement agreement.

What Does a Mediator Do?

Mediators provide a safe environment and facilitate communication between the parties in order to help them reach settlements.
