As legal mediators in California, we provide services aimed at helping disputing parties reach a settlement outside the courtroom. Our role involves acting as neutral third parties to facilitate negotiations and assist both sides in coming to a mutually acceptable agreement. Here are some key aspects of our work:

Facilitation: We help parties communicate effectively, ensuring that each party’s perspective is heard and understood. Our guidance is designed to foster cooperation and lead to a resolution.

Impartiality: Unlike judges or arbitrators, we don’t make decisions or impose solutions on the parties. We remain neutral and do not take sides.

Confidentiality: The mediation sessions we conduct are confidential. This confidentiality encourages openness and honesty, allowing parties to discuss issues freely without fear of public exposure.

Voluntary Process: Participation in mediation is typically voluntary, though sometimes it can be mandated by a court. Even in such cases, the outcome needs to be agreed upon by both parties.

Cost-Effective: Mediation can be a more cost-effective and quicker alternative to traditional litigation, saving participants time and legal fees.Flexibility: The mediation process is flexible and can be adapted to the needs of the parties involved. We help explore creative solutions that a court might not be able to offer.

Preservation of Relationships: Our mediation sessions can help preserve a professional or personal relationship that might otherwise be damaged by the adversarial nature of litigation.

We are used in a variety of contexts in California, including family law (such as divorce and custody disputes), business disputes, employment disputes, and real estate matters.
