Mediation is a confidential process through which a neutral third party aids others in conflict to communicate, fully identify areas of disagreement and options, and negotiate a mutually agreeable resolution. Mediation is not arbitration. In mediation, decisions are not made for you. It is a process through which parties work together to resolve their dispute. It is not a legal proceeding, although a contractual agreement is formed during the mediation. If parties agree, the mediated agreement can be irrevocable.
