MEDIATION: THE BENEFITS OF HAVING A LAWYER DURING MEDIATION
Mediation is a confidential out-of-court process that is much less expensive and time-consuming than litigation. For these reasons, many business contracts require mediation as the first step toward resolving legal disputes. While the goal of mediation is to reach a settlement agreement favorable to both parties, there is no requirement that either party agree to a resolution. Unlike arbitrators, mediators do not have the ability to make any decisions regarding the underlying dispute.
It's important to have legal representation through the mediation process and Edmund Gegan understands how to make the most of the mediation process to protect your interests.
As a trusted adviser and advocate, you can count on the Gegan Law Office to:
- Prepare a strong case going into mediation, including gathering effective evidence to support your position
- Help you delineate your goals, priorities and willingness to compromise on discrete issues
- Advise you on the legal ramifications of potential resolutions
- Highlight any critical issues that could undermine your goals
- Assist in drafting and reviewing any settlement agreements
If mediation fails to produce a resolution, arbitration or litigation may become necessary. Because we practice in both litigation and out-of-court alternatives to trial, we will stay by your side to represent you should the need arise.
