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.

Environmental Dispute Resolution Services

  • Environmental disputes are often referred by counsel directly to the civil courts, however a mediated outcome is almost always a better first step.

            • Environmental disputes typically involve clashes over resources of some sort and conflicting perceptions on the appropriate value and use of those resources.

            •  

            • What may be considered acceptable use by one party may well result in what another party consider damaging to the used resource, be it air, water, soil, or a picturesque view.

            •  

            • When resources are held in common, local government agencies may be called in alongside the disputing parties. In such instances a trained mediator can help the parties better manage multi-party communications, bringing together variable perspectives.

            •  

            • When resources are the legal property of one party but their use somehow infringes on the rights of the other, typically a neighbor or group of neighbors, the presence of a mediator can be critical to diffusing a contentious local matter. A trained mediator can help the parties not only reach a settlement that works for all involved but establish the basis for positive future relations between all concerned.
