Mediation is one of the key processes in the "alternative dispute resolution" framework helping people work through issues of difference in a confidential and "safe" environment. The advantages of mediation are many, however, the most important and appealing are:
- Mediation does not involve a judge, jury, referee, adjudicator and does not generally involve lawyers.
- Mediation is considerably cheaper than Court or Tribunal proceedings. It is well known that litigation can be extraordinarily expensive thereby limiting its use to those with unlimited financial resources.
- Because proceedings are confidential, the mediation process can be tailored to suit the particular needs of the dispute and the parties.
- The final result is not imposed but arrived at, agreed by and signed off exclusively by the parties. The mediator facilitates the process, not hand down a decision that no one ultimately really wants to accept or follow.
