Mediation
Read on while we unpack what mediation is and why it is widely used.
The Mediation Process
The mediation process generally takes between 3 & 5 sessions of 60 to 120 minutes each, but can be tailored to suit you.
On successful conclusion of the mediation process parties are presented with a Settlement Agreement. This document details all the points of agreement reached during the mediation process.

Why Mediate
Cost
The mediation process is much quicker than pursuing a case to Litigation. Mediation is 70% less expensive than a court process and Parties may also agree to share the already reduced costs of this process.
Confidentiality
While court hearings are public, mediation remains confidential and inadmissible as evidence in any court unless otherwise discoverable in terms of law. This in itself makes the process less traumatic for parties.
Control
While the Mediator resides over the process, the Parties retain control over the outcome and can abandon the process at any time.
Comfort
The matter is dealt with in the comfort of a private office/boardroom as opposed to unnerving Courtrooms
