Family  Mediation and Conflict Management       

                        What is mediation?

                                        Is it right for my situation?   

                                                                                                 Might it be a healing solution for my family?

Mediation is a voluntary process whereby a mediator (neutral third party) facilitates a meeting between the disputing parties and assists them in finding mutually acceptable solutions to their conflict. It is a way of solving problems which allows the parties to talk with each other, even if they could not do so before, and resolve their conflict without resorting to the courts for imposed solutions. It is a settlement process that encourages and allows parties, rather than lawyers and judges to control the outcome regarding their finances, parenting plans, families, and businesses.

Family members can discuss and resolve their issues in a safe and confidential environment. Unlike adversarial legal proceedings, mediation is not about winning and losing. Mediation is about exploring possible solutions with a spirit of cooperation, accommodation, and mutual respect. The other person's gain is not necessarily our loss - there is usually ample opportunity for mutual gain.

Mediation is a highly effective process for settling conflict and disputes - it's a viable alternative to expensive, prolonged, and destructive litigation.
