Mediation Process
The process of mediation can take a couple of different forms. Depending on the level of conflict, I either meet with both parties together or each one individually. If the parties meet together, then we start by setting an agenda, working through the needs and interests of each party, and work to find common ground between the two positions.
If we meet separately, then I take what I have learned from both parties and prepare a letter from one party to the other detailing where there is agreement and where the interests diverge. From there, the process is to start to bring the opposing sides together and build on the agreements that they do have. This can be done either in a series of individual meetings or in a group session.
The process is flexible, and I am happy to do whatever the parties need to work through their own unique situation.
Once an agreement is reached, I prepare either a formal mediated agreement for the parties to sign or, if they so desire and the case necessitates, my office prepares the legal documentation that will ultimately be signed by a Judge to make their case official.
