Mediation is typically used to resolve a wide range of conflicts such as family disputes, workplace issues, landlord-tenant disagreements, and business contract negotiations.
It can also be used to help people process their emotions in difficult situations and learn more productive ways of communicating and resolving conflicts.
Working with a qualified mediator can yield a variety of benefits, including improved communication, depolarizing emotionally charged conversations, and increased satisfaction with the outcome by all parties involved.
Mediators also provide an objective perspective as well as structure and support throughout the process. Additionally, they are trained to help facilitate agreements that are legal, fair, and equitable while respecting the interests and rights of each party.
A successful mediation session typically results in a mutually agreed upon solution that all parties can live with. The mediator will work with both sides in a non-judgmental manner to identify underlying issues and come up with possible solutions. The mediator will also help the parties develop a fair, reasonable, and legally enforceable agreement.
At the end of the session, parties should feel heard and have closure on their disputes without compromising their rights or interests.
Yes, the confidentiality of the process extends beyond the actual session. Mediation is a confidential process, meaning that all information shared during mediation remains confidential and cannot be disclosed to any third party.
This confidentiality also applies after the mediation session has ended and should remain in effect until all parties agree otherwise.
A mediation session typically lasts anywhere from a few hours to an entire day, depending on the complexity of the situation.
The mediator will do their best to ensure that all parties are comfortable and have enough time to address their issues.
Generally, if a resolution is not reached in one day, additional sessions can be scheduled to continue the discussion until all parties reach an agreement.
