Mediation
Defending Your Rights
Mediation offers a respectful and efficient way to resolve disputes without litigation. We provide structured guidance to help parties reach fair, mutually acceptable agreements.
Florida mediation provides an effective alternative to traditional litigation, allowing parties to resolve disputes in a private, cooperative setting. As a neutral mediator, we guide productive discussions, encourage open communication, and help identify practical solutions tailored to each situation.
Mediation can reduce time, cost, and emotional stress while giving participants greater control over the outcome. Our process is designed to be structured, confidential, and focused on resolution. Scheduling a mediation session is simple. Contact our office by phone or online to discuss your matter and determine whether mediation is the right path towards resolution.
FAQ
What is mediation and how does it work?
Mediation is a confidential, voluntary process where a neutral third party (the mediator) helps individuals resolve disputes without going to trial. In Florida, mediation is commonly used in family law, civil, and business disputes. The mediator does not make decisions but helps the parties communicate, explore options, and work toward a mutually acceptable agreement.
Is mediation required in court cases?
In many Florida cases, yes. Courts often require mediation before a case can proceed to trial, especially in family law and civil matters. Even when not required, parties may choose mediation to save time, reduce costs, and maintain more control over the outcome.
What happens if we reach an agreement during mediation?
If an agreement is reached, it is typically put into writing and signed by both parties. Once approved by the court (if applicable), the agreement becomes legally binding and enforceable. If no agreement is reached, the parties may continue with litigation to explore other resolution options.
