Mediation & Arbitration
Mediation is a way of resolving issues directly with
the help of a mediator. It offers an alternative
which is generally quick, inexpensive and
confidential. It is a private and entirely voluntary
process that involves a series of meetings between
both parties and a mediator where, together, they
try to reach an agreement. If an agreement is
reached it can, potentially, be made binding via a
court order.
