Frequently asked questions

What exactly is mediation?

Mediation involves attempting to settle a legal dispute through active participation of a third party (mediator) who works to find points of agreement and make those in conflict agree on a fair result. It is considered a type of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR).

What are the benefits of mediation?

Mediation is a faster, more efficient and confidential approach to resolve disputes and it also allows companies to engage in without prejudice discussions prior to or after launching litigation. If successful, it is a much cheaper option than litigation.

What defines a successful mediation?

A successful mediation depends on the right mediator with solid skills, the parties’ willingness to settle, the attitude of the parties’ legal representatives, the respective strengths of the parties’ case, and whether there are any other consequences that are not within the control of both parties.
