WHAT IS MEDIATION?
Mediation is a voluntary, confidential process aimed at assisting parties in finding a mutually agreeable resolution to their differences. A mediator is not a judge, but rather assists the parties in a neutral manner in identifying the key issues of concern to them -- and helping them explore potential ideas and solutions which the parties may have for reaching a resolution. While each mediation is different, the process often can take place in a single session.
