How
does Mediation Work?
When someone involved in
a dispute contacts Mediation Works, he/she will discuss the problem
during a short intake interview where the best course of action for
resolving the matter will be determined.
If the dispute can be best
resolved though mediation, the other parties involved in the conflict
should be contacted to determine if they are willing to use the services
of a mediator to work out the problem.
When all
parties involved have agreed to participate in mediation, a convenient
time and location
for the first session will be arranged. At mediation, our mediator
will listen carefully to all parties and assist them in negotiating
a resolution that is agreeable to all parties.
If an agreement is reached,
our mediator will write out the details of the settlement in the form
of an agreement for each of the parties.
