Why mediate?
It is confidential
It is a voluntary process
The mediator is impartial
Parties agree that all negotiations are ‘legally privileged’. This means they are not to be referred to in any subsequent legal proceedings
It is much cheaper than going to trial
Why are these reasons so important?
Because they give you the freedom and control to negotiate your own settlement. You will not be dictated to by a judge, a third party or the legal process. You will decide.
Because they enable you to reach the sort of commercially sensible solutions that a court would have no power to order.
Because you can leave the stress of the conflict behind you and take away a solution that is tailored to your needs.
