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.

Estate Dispute Resolution Services

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

            • The death of a family member is inevitably an emotional time for all involved, and the disposition of the deceased’s estate is typically a complex and often contentious affair.

            •  

            • If not handled in a clear-headed manner from the start, family members may find themselves in contention over elements of the deceased’s estate, damaging otherwise healthy family relationships.

            •  

            • Specific items in dispute may be of sentimental value or real financial value.

            •  

            • In any case the challenge is for all parties to agree on an outcome that respects as much as possible the wishes of the deceased and the remaining family members.

            •  

            While both large and small estate disputes can often seem to be intractable, the characteristic need for disputing parties to co-exist in the future points to mediation as an optimal solution where relationships can be best preserved.

             

            • Prior to any dispute involving the courts, mediation should certainly be considered as a leading option for such sensitive matters.
