An expert third-party neutral helps parties and counsel candidly assess the strengths, weaknesses, and probable outcomes of their case to forge a mutually acceptable resolution.

Why Choose Sidebar Solutions for Mediation?

• Rigorous Case Preparation: Your mediator prepares thoroughly before the session begins, starting with a comprehensive file review and strategic pre-mediation communications.

• A Private, Dedicated Forum: The process includes preliminary conversations and continuous private caucuses with all sides throughout the day of the scheduled mediation.

• Proactive Follow-Up: If the dispute does not resolve during the initial session, the mediator will actively encourage and guide follow-up discussions to bridge the remaining gap.

• Entirely Voluntary: Participation is completely voluntary—any party has the right to withdraw from the mediation process at any point.

• Strictly Confidential: All discussions, negotiation strategies, and final settlement terms remain strictly confidential unless public disclosure is mutually agreed upon.

• Binding Contractual Outcomes: Upon successful resolution, terms are formalized in a written settlement agreement and release, creating a binding contract.

No-Risk Litigation Alternative: In those rare instances where a compromise resolution is not achieved, parties remain entirely free to return to the court system and resume active litigation.
