Taking matters to court is not a viable solution as it is not only expensive but also takes effort and time on your part. This is why we actively recommend dispute resolution via mediation for our clients.

We understands that litigation can be expensive and lengthy with the benefits often being outweighed by the costs.

Our mediation lawyers offer a cost-effective option. With our professional assistance, you’ll be able to resolve issues amicably and reach a suitable compromise.

How Can We Help?

Why mediation is preferred?

Mediation involves the role of a mediator or third party (neutral) facilitating a constructive and open discussion between the parties concerned. Instead of offering advice or making a decision, a mediator guides the parties involved in arriving at a solution on their own accord.

Mediation is the chosen process when a dispute arises in a shareholder or partnership or any other such agreements. In such as case the parties involved will nominate a mediator. The mediator helps resolve the dispute instead of taking the dispute to court, which is a lengthy process that is best avoided at all costs.

Further, mediation is a process that allows more number of outcomes, instead of the conventional court claims. In case of court proceedings, only one of the parties will win. Whereas in mediation there is high possibility of both parties benefits with the outcome as they are encouraged to arrive at creative and mutually beneficial choices.

The main objective of mediation is to understand the underlying issue enabling amicable dispute resolution. This process takes time. The duration may vary from as minimal as four hours to an entire day or even many days, if it is a complicated dispute.

How mediation works

Mediation is a flexible process that can be tailored to suit specific situations. But when the concerned parties agree to the mediation, short conferences are held by the mediator separately for the parties involved. The dispute background will be discussed in what is called as pre-mediation or preliminary conference.

The objective of the pre- mediation process include

  • Evaluate whether a dispute is eligible for mediation
  • Discuss the way the mediation will be done including the parties attending the mediation, availability and the type of facilities needed

During mediation process there are different levels which include private sessions, joint negotiations, and agreement and closure followed by post mediation phase where the agreement is enforced.

The main role of the mediator is to guide the concerned parties in conducting the process smoothly and successfully.

The mediator ensures each and every phase is completed prior to moving to the next phase. With mediation, there are more risks when you try to speed up the process. It is best to take it slowly and there are times when mediation can drag on for years too due to the complexity of the issues present.
