This often helps everyone better know and remember terms of the agreement. Mediation empowers the parties to create an agreement that they all can live with. Mediation offers an attractive alternative to doing nothing or going to court. Participants with an open mind, willingness to listen, and serious interest in resolving their dispute greatly increase chances of coming to an agreement. Confidential sessions help participants feel more comfortable in speaking freely and candidly.
Issues become clearer and the possibility for agreement is greater.
