Why Mediation & Arbitration?
While some cases simply must go to trial, many disputes can
be handled out of court. Avoiding litigation through mediation
and arbitration saves time, money, and frequently saves relationships
from being irreparably damaged. The goal of mediation and arbitration
is to evaluate all the options and then resolve conflicts quickly,
painlessly and at minimal cost.

Speed
Compared to litigation, which sometime takes years, mediation
and arbitration often leads to a speedy resolution; often in just
a matter of weeks.

Control
Once a dispute becomes litigious you lose control of the terms
and outcome, but mediation and arbitration allow for more
creative and flexible solutions.

Privacy
Unlike going "on record" in a public court, the proceedings
of mediation and arbitration are private and discreet, with all
information remaining confidential.

Cooperation
The whole point of mediation and arbitration is to reach
a cooperative conclusion, with more chance of a "win-win"
resolution and the preservation of your relationship.

Economy
By avoiding most of the legal costs associated with a full courtroom
trial, arbitration and mediation are economical alternatives
to dispute resolution.
