Mediation

What can mediation achieve?

Mediation can be useful in:

  • Developing workable and mutually acceptable solutions to disputes
  • Avoiding the need for a hearing and associated costs
  • Reducing and clarifying issues in dispute, thereby reducing the length of the hearing and associated costs, where a hearing cannot be avoided
  • Improving environmental outcomes through exploring a range of options and innovative solutions
  • Building healthier ongoing relationships between the parties
