What is mediation?

Mediation is a type of alternative dispute resolution that focuses on cooperation. Disputing parties work with a neutral third-party mediator in order to resolve differences. The process takes place over the course of several short, informal mediation sessions. The role of the mediator is to keep parties focused on coming to a mutually beneficial agreement. Mediation is a voluntary process, meaning you can leave at any time. Many clients prefer mediation over traditional litigation because it allows them to have more control over the resolution process.

What is arbitration?

Another type of alternative dispute resolution our civil litigation lawyers are experienced in is arbitration. In arbitration, both parties sit down with a third party or arbitrator to resolve their differences. An arbitrator is either a retired or practicing attorney who issues binding decisions enforceable under state or federal law. Arbitration is preferred to litigation because it is fast, efficient and informal. Ultimately, both mediation and arbitration offer numerous benefits over litigation.
