Once mediation is considered appropriate, sessions give the parties an opportunity to discuss concerns and negotiate solutions in a neutral, facilitated environment. Number and duration vary by dispute.
If the parties reach an acceptable understanding, the agreed terms are documented appropriately. Legal advice may be obtained where necessary before signing.
