Mediation
Mediation is a process of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) in which a neutral third party, the Mediator, assists two or more parties to negotiate an agreement. Generally speaking, it is any activity in which an agreement on any matter is facilitated by an impartial third party, usually a professional, in the common interest of the parties involved.
Mediation applies to different fields, with some common peculiar elements and some differences, for each of its specialties. The main fields of mediation include commerce, legal disputes and diplomacy, but forms of mediation appear in other fields as well.

Finally Mediators have a TV show too !
Fairly Legal is a new USA Network television series starring Sarah Shahi,
Michael Trucco, Baron Vaughn, and Virginia Williams.
The show is a legal drama that gives the viewer a lighthearted view of the work of
a mediator. The main character Kate Reed (played by Sarah Shahi) is a
firm believer that justice can always be found-even if it's not always in the courtroom.
Check your local listings and give it a try. You may find that Mediation or ADR could
be a usable alternative for your situation as well; even if it is without the comedic undertone.

Litigation is expensive. It is a frustrating and rather inefficient way to resolve disputes.
These are some of the reasons why alternative dispute resolution (ADR) is becoming an
increasingly popular means of resolving lawsuits before trial and even avoiding litigation
altogether.
|
|
|
ADR includes both
arbitration and
mediation. And while they are different procedures,
their ultimate goal is the same. Minimize the expense and delay associated with litigation!
Countless public and private organizations provide both mediation and arbitration services.
