MEDIATION Mediation is a settlement and negotiation process in which the parties to a dispute agree to have a neutral third-party act as a facilitator. The mediator has no authority to decide any issues in the case, nor does the mediator have the ability to unilaterally bind the parties to an agreement. A mediator does not act as an advocate for any party to a mediation, but simply acts an advocate for the process of alternative dispute resolution. Generally, if the parties have already agreed to mediate their dispute, it is a good indication of the likelihood that the dispute will be resolved without the need for further litigation. It is estimated that between 95% and 98% of all cases mediated result is some form of settlement. Mr. Weiss is experienced in mediation.
