KERMISH & PALETZ LLP – EXPERIENCED & PROFESSIONAL MEDIATION LAWYER STUDIO CITY CA

MediationIf you’ve given up on negotiating a settlement of your dispute directly with the other party, mediation may be the most painless and efficient way to solve it. Mediation is particularly valuable when your dispute involves another person with whom, either by choice or circumstance, you want to remain on good terms. This may include family members, co-workers, business partners, your landlord, neighbors, or others with whom you have a continuing personal or business relationship. Lawsuits can polarize and ultimately ruin relationships, so a huge advantage of mediation is its ability to get a dispute resolved without, hopefully, destroying a relationship. If you are or are not already involved in a lawsuit, mediation offers a huge benefit: It gives you a way to resolve the dispute and leave the court system behind.

By choosing mediation over going to litigation, you can save time, money, and stress by working with your ex-spouse to resolve a wide range of issues. Working with a skilled mediator can be critical in helping you successfully resolve your family law matters.

People often ask, “Does mediation really work?” In a word, yes. We know from years of research that when you compare couples, family members, business partners, etc. who have mediated their case with others who go through an adversarial civil lawsuit, mediating parties are more likely to be satisfied with the process and the results, likely to take less time and spend less money, and are less likely to go back to court later to fight about something.

The main advantage of mediation is that it keeps you and your adversary in control of your own litigation. That can make all the difference in your recovering from your dispute and moving on with your life. Mediation allows the two of you to get through the legal process with less conflict than you would experience in an adversarial case.
