Mediation Intake
Describe the issues you are facing and learn about the mediation process
Service Description
The mediation intake is the first step in the mediation process. In order for a mediation to take place, both parties in dispute will be required to participate in an intake. During this step you will learn about the mediation process, the role of the mediator including what to expect as a neutral third party and you will also have the opportunity to share your position, the issues that you are facing, non-negotiables and what you would like to see from the other party going forward. At the end of the intake, you will be asked if you would like to proceed with the mediation session between yourself and the other party. Upon agreement to proceed, you will be sent an informed consent form, an agreement to mediate which will outline what was shared with both parties during the intake, the fee structure (i.e. when the deposit is due, when the balance is due, etc.) and who will be responsible for fees, timeline, etc. You will also have the opportunity to ask questions and have your concerns addressed. While mediators are not able to provide legal advice, you will be provided information about the legislation that applies to your situation and the mediator will discuss your options with you. During this session, your concerns will be addressed and you will learn what to expect from a mediation.
