Mediation
Why Mediate?
Mediation provides a time-efficient and cost-effective method of dispute resolution, which provides a forum for constructive and positive discussion between the disputing parties. In a trial or arbitration, the outcome is imposed by a third party (judge, jury or arbitrator). Often there is a clear winner and a clear loser, but regardless of the outcome, it is largely out of the control of the parties.
Mediation avoids these pitfalls by relying on a neutral facilitator who guides the parties to a mutually agreeable resolution. In addition, unlike a trial, the parties can elect to keep the mediation proceedings confidential.

Why Mediate with Devry Smith Frank LLP?
Our mediators bring the experience of having been on both sides of the issue. We pinpoint the parties’ needs and help navigate them to a mutually acceptable resolution. As mediators, we remain neutral – but that doesn’t mean we take a passive roll to help find the best resolution for all parties.
