Advantages to Mediation


The mediation process is far better at creating “win-win” outcomes than the traditional courts, while costing far less in terms of time, money, and frustration.  

Traditional court-driven processes focused primarily on monetary and legalistic priorities and procedures cannot hope to match the lower costs, speed, clarity, and opportunity for mutually agreed outcomes that are made possible by mediation.

Given that a majority of cases put to mediation cases settle at greatly reduced legal expense, mediation represents a meaningful option that should be considered every time a dispute emerges.

Save Time and Money

            • Many disputes are resolved in one mediation session, as opposed to a lenghty court case. You can avoid the added cost of lawyer fees, since representation is optional and certainly not necessary. Because a mediated settlement is generally reached faster, it allows you to rapidly put the dispute behind you and get on with your life.

Avoid the Hassle of Litigation

      • Why expose yourself to the uncertainty of a trial? In most disputes, each party has facts or law that supports their position, and there is no guarantee how a judge or jury will rule. Practical Mediators are dedicated to securing for our clients all the advantages of a litigated result, but without the stress and frustration associated with the court system.
You Control the Outcome

  • When parties decide to resolve their dispute through litigation, they hand over control of the case to the court. Alternatively, mediation allows parties to retain control over whether and how the dispute gets resolved. They are free to jointly negotiate a settlement but are not forced to do so. Moreover, both parties have an equal voice in the mediation process.

Get Results, Not Recriminations

  • Because mediation is intended to be non-adversarial in nature, each party has the opportunity to present its best offer for the other party to consider. Practical Mediators assist parties to focus on their mutual interests, as opposed to their opposing positions. The result is a win-win situation for all parties, since everyone leaves with something that they want.
