Advantages of Mediation

These are 6 principal advantages of mediation:

1

Cost

Mediation is usually considerably more cost effective than going to court.

2

Confidentiality

Mediations are conducted in private – unlike court hearings.

3

Speed

Mediation can be arranged swiftly and matters resolved efficiently – usually within a day.

4

Flexibility

The parties are free to find their own solution – often a solution which could not be ordered by a court or even an arbitrator.

5

Agreement

Parties are more likely to adhere to an agreement they have reached themselves, saving difficulties with enforcement.

6

Control

Mediation is an entirely voluntary process. Nothing will happen without your agreement and you are in control of the outcome.
