Workplace conflict is similar to a family dispute — after resolution, there is an on-going work-related relationship. Our mediators have the additional skills and expertise needed to assist in resolving these sensitive workplace disputes.

Myth #1

Employment mediation opens more problems.

Actually, the exact opposite is true. Mediation can often avoid costly lawsuits  and damage to your reputation. Mediation is “behind-closed-doors” vs a public court appearance. Mediation is confidential.  

Myth #2

Mediation is not needed,
“I am right.”

The only thing worse than thinking you are “right”, is betting that a judge or  jury will agree with you. In a court appearance you don’t have an unlimited amount of time to state your case and convince a jury. In mediation, the parties are in control of how the dispute is resolved.

Myth #3

The case will
never settle.

Actually, every case will be resolved…in some way, at some point. The questions are: How long do you really want this to drag on? How much money do you want to spend? And what is the toll on you? Hire a professional to help  you get to a resolution as quickly as possible.
