Mediation can be an excellent option for many cases, particularly those where the parties are open to collaboration and wish to maintain control over the resolution process. It is especially beneficial for disputes where preserving relationships is important, such as family, business, or neighbor conflicts. Mediation is also ideal for cases where the costs and time associated with litigation are a concern, as it is typically quicker and more cost-effective than going to court. Unlike the courtroom, which leaves much more room for chance and may benefit only one party—potentially your opponent—mediation allows both parties to work toward mutually beneficial outcomes. If the parties are willing to engage in honest communication and focus on their needs, interests, and emotions, mediation can offer tailored and creative solutions that meet the unique circumstances of the dispute.

However, mediation may not be the right choice in cases involving significant power imbalances, unwillingness to compromise, or where legal precedent is required. Consulting with an experienced mediator or legal professional can help you determine if mediation is the best path for resolving your case.
