"Providing Professional  Mediation  Services and Training Since 1992"

    Welcome to The Mediation Institute

Mediation, also known as (ADR) Alternative Dispute Resolution or Conflict Resolution is a process in which disputing parties resolve differences with the help of a trained and impartial third party. Mediators guide the parties negotiation process by assisting them to establish goals, develop agreements, discuss parental options,  recognize consequences, and improve communication.

 

 The Mediation Institute offers a full range of alternative dispute resolution services utilizing qualified court approved mediators  for clients seeking creative solutions to business, family and domestic issues, civil and commercial conflicts.

What types of cases can be mediated?    

    

Most civil (non-criminal) disputes can be mediated, including those involving divorce, separation, property division, elder care, pre-nuptial, child custody, visitation, contracts, leases, small business ownership, and employment. For example, a divorcing couple might mediate to work out a mutually agreeable child custody agreement and division of property, or estranged business partners might choose mediation to work out an agreement to divide their business. Many couples find mediation as a more economical and expedient alternative to lengthy expensive court battles.

Your participation in the mediation process is voluntary. You can leave whenever you like. However, a good mediator will try to help you resolve your concerns to keep you in the mediation process.
 

  

From case preparation, to the conclusion of the session, all cases  are handled by qualified by mediators only, never assistants. Confidentiality, attention to details  and dedication to resolution is our priority as we move your case from disputed  to settled.
