What is Mediation?
Mediation is a form of alternative dispute resolution which achieves settlement in about 90% of cases. The North West seems to be lagging behind its Southern Counterparts in the adoption of Mediation. Our research has found that Lawyers in the Northwest simply do not use or offer mediation. Some have admitted to being a little scared of the process as they are not used to it.
If you or your clients are hearing any of the following statements then Mediation should seriously be considered as a cost effective way of resolving the dispute:
- I would prefer to reach an agreement rather than litigate
- I may want to continue in business in the future with the other party
- Confidentiality is important
- I am concerned about costs rising
- I want an end to this situation as soon as possible
