Mediation is an extension of the negotiating process.
Instead, it is the mediator's very neutrality that frequently enables him or her to transcend the posturing of the parties so that their true concerns can be addressed. Submitting your dispute to AAA mediation will not delay any pending lawsuit or arbitration that you might have. Mediators who serve on the AAA's panel are experts in successful negotiations. Mediators receive a fee from the parties for their services. They are also rewarded by knowing that their efforts have resulted in an amicable settlement of a dispute that would have cost substantial time and money had it been litigated.
