Mediation & Litigation

Mediation and litigation represent contrasting methods for addressing conflicts and disputes. Mediation is characterized by its emphasis on open communication, cooperation, and voluntary agreement, making it a preferred choice for those seeking amicable resolutions outside of the courtroom. On the other hand, litigation follows a formal legal process that involves presenting cases before a judge or jury, ultimately leading to legally binding decisions. These two approaches offer distinct paths for resolving conflicts, each with its own advantages and considerations.

Confidentiality

Mediation discussions are confidential, promoting frank and open dialogue. Parties often sign confidentiality agreements to protect sensitive information shared during the process.

Binding Decisions
