Comprehensive Mediation
Mediation is a way to settle all types of disagreements, disputes and problems with minimal conflict and resources expended. A trained mediator serves as a neutral third party who will quickly get up to speed on the issues at hand and help you prioritize the goals for resolution. It is important to understand that a mediator is not a decider, so if you decide to pursue mediation as a mechanism for settling a problem, you and the other party will be empowered to come to the decisions, with the discussion and resolution facilitated by the mediator.

What is couple mediation? The parties negotiate directly with one another under the direct supervision and guidance of a mediator. The mediator creates an environment where the parties can sit together to discuss settlement options. The mediator establishes ground rules for effective communication so that an argument turns into a problem-solving discussion. Even though emotions may run high, the mediator keeps the parties focused and moving forward to resolution of the issues.
