Are there different types of mediation? If so, what are some examples of those types?

Mandatory vs. Voluntary

What is the Mediation Process?

Mediations typically follow a similar order. First, our mediators explain the mediation process to both parties. This is followed by an informal opening statement from both sides. Next, both parties break into caucuses (allowing each party to be in separate rooms). Our mediators go back and forth between both rooms with settlements and demands until a decision is reached. The mediator then brings everyone back together and reviews the decision with both parties.
