Keep control

You choose the mediator. You decide whether to settle or not. No one imposes a decision on you. You can find solutions no judge could ever give you.

How it works

Avoid court

Have your day in court without going to court. You can tell your side of the story in a way you can’t in court. And settlement agreements are legally binding.

Save Money

Mediation costs a fraction of what you spend on litigation. Save time as well - and time is money.

Online

You can mediate from your own home or office. No travel. Less disruption. Feel safer and less stressed.
