Advantages Of Mediation
There are a number of benefits individuals gain by using mediation to resolve a dispute, including:
- Saves time – People who use mediation are able to resolve matters much earlier than if they opted to go through the courts. By coming together to reach a joint agreement, people can avoid enduring a lengthy and expensive litigation process.
- Preserves communication – When people are in the midst of a dispute, it is common for lines of communication to erode. Mediation brings both parties together, allowing them to communicate directly. This face-to-face communication is effective at helping people find common ground.
- Avoids an adversarial environment – Mediation fosters a cooperative atmosphere. This allows individuals to maintain a good relationship with all parties involved in the dispute, making it easier to move beyond the conflict.

Mediation is an effective tool at resolving disputes. Approximately 80 percent of mediated cases are settled outside of court, and less than five percent go to trial.
