Berkeley County Mediation Attorney
Martinsburg & Jefferson County Mediation Solutions
While we are able and willing to represent you in court litigation, an ideal conflict is settled outside the court. Mediation is a more peaceable alternative to the harrowing court proceedings. During mediation, parties come together to comprehensively review and resolve their conflict. Mediation can be beneficial for issues where the two parties have a relationship that they wish to maintain.
What Is Mediation?
Mediation is a process in which a mediator works to get two parties to settle their disputes outside of the courtroom. The mediator does not have the same power the judge does in terms of making the final judgement. However, the mediator plays an important role in leading each party to a point of cooperation and agreement. If two parties agree to mediation, then they can expect to have more of a say in the final resolution if everything goes smoothly.
Mediation does not always work, but it offers a lot of benefits in many cases. If you want to know if mediation is the right option for you, do not hesitate to contact our Martinsburg office for assistance.
