Who should use mediation?
Mediation can proceed before, during and even after a case has been filed and litigated in court.
Mediation can also proceed in lieu of court, helping resolve disputes without the emotional and financial expense of court.
Cost Benefits of Mediation
If you are represented by an attorney and your case is ordered to mediation, choosing a strong experienced mediator is critical to getting your case settled rather than just going through the motions and ending up in an protracted expensive trial. You might spend days on trial preparation and in trial and spending tens of thousands of dollars all while facing an unknown result. Why spend all that money for a roll of the dice in front of a judge or jury?
If you are not represented by an attorney, mediation makes even more sense and is even more cost effective.
Most mediation sessions take only a few hours while some may take multiple sessions depending on the complexity of the case and the number of parties involved.
The cost of mediation for one or two days is a fraction of what you will pay for weeks or months of attorney fees.
The cost of your meditation will be set at the time of hiring and there will be no surprises and no hidden fees.
Save your hard earned money and invest in the mediation process and lets get your disputes settled once and for all!
