Arbitration, Facilitation, & Mediation
Many legal disputes never make it into court. Opposing sides often attempt to resolve their legal disputes through arbitration, facilitation, or mediation. Going to trial can be time-consuming and expensive, settling disputes. Choosing arbitration, facilitation, or mediation saves money and can quickly resolve disputes.
“Mediation” is the use of a neutral third person to help parties reach a voluntary resolution of a dispute. It is informal, confidential, and flexible, focusing on interests rather than positions, and on practical and legal choices.
“Facilitation” is the use of a neutral third party to help multi-party groups accomplish the content of their work by providing process leadership and expertise.
“Arbitration” is an alternative to litigation in which an arbitrator or panel of arbitrators listen to the positions of the disputing parties in a relatively informal proceeding and then issue a decision on how the situation should be resolved.
