Civil mediation is a way for employers, companies or private individuals to resolve their differences with the help of an independent third party. That third party is a trained mediator and lawyer who will help the parties find a fair solution to problems. Mediation is a sensible and practical way of settling disputes without resorting to the traditional use of litigation. If you are an employer or a company director with a problem relating to commercial matters or corporate disputes such as contracts, employment and partnerships, mediation may be a swift and financially attractive way of resolving such disputes. If you are a private individual with problems relating to civil matters such as accidents or a Will dispute or a dispute with your neighbours over the boundaries, again mediation could be of assistance.
Many people come to civil and commercial mediation because they have an ongoing dispute which they are concerned will end up in Court with at the very least a very large bill from the solicitor. They are often worried about the time, stress and costs that they may incur and are worried that they should be concentrating on their business rather than going to court. If you have found yourself or your company in this position or you are facing the mite of a company and wish for the playing fields to be levelled, then mediation is a way forward for you whether you are a private individual or a company or a firm, mediation may help.
