Mediation
Mediation is a conflict resolution process that allows participants to express their concerns in a safe, private setting, with the goal of reaching a practical solution that satisfies all involved. It is voluntary and confidential.
The professional mediator, as a neutral party, facilitates the discussion to help the individuals come to an agreement and reduce future conflict. Throughout the process, participants are empowered to follow their own path to resolution.
Mediation can effectively resolve many situations that might otherwise lead to costly and stressful legal proceedings, including but not limited to the following:
・Divorce
・Child custody
・Estate planning
・Family business or other family dispute
・Elder care
・Pre- and post-nuptial agreements
・Probate
・Domestic partnerships
