Mediation is a form of alternative dispute resolution.
Before or after legal proceedings have been commenced, both sides can invite the other to mediation. This is a non-obligatory process and either party can walk away at any time before or during the mediation. Mediation usually takes the form of a meeting between the parties at a neutral venue. Attendance of solicitors or experts depends upon the circumstances. There is no set format for mediation procedure.
