Mediation Services
Jan is a compassionate and thoughtful mediator who genuinely wants to assist both parties to negotiate the best possible outcomes.
How mediation works:
Role of Mediator
Mediators do not advise upon, evaluate or determine disputes. They assist in managing the process of dispute and conflict resolution whereby the participants agree upon the outcomes, when appropriate.
Mediation
Mediation processes are primarily facilitative processes. The mediator provides assistance in managing a process which supports the participants to make decisions about future actions and outcomes.
The Process
- 15 minute discovery call to see if mediation is right for you
- A pre-mediation session of up to 1 hour with each party
- The mediation day of up to 3 hours includes:
- Mediator Opening.
- Opening statement from each party.
- Joint exploration of interests.
- Individual sessions with mediator.
- Joint generation and exploration of options.
- Joint negotiation and record or agreement
