Through mediation, Virtual In-House Counsel can help you:

Reach agreement in a business or a family law matter

Litigation should be a last resort. In addition to devouring time, money and energy, lawsuits, even the small claims variety, tend to polarize disagreements into win-all/lose-all propositions where mutually beneficial compromise is difficult. Consider bringing a neutral party into the situation to help craft a compromise.

Mediation brings both sides of a dispute together with a professional, who listens to both arguments and tries to help the parties reach a compromise.

When compared to litigation in the court system, mediation is inexpensive and fast. While the parties will have to pay a fee for a mediator or an arbitrator, they will benefit by not having to pay the substantial costs of bringing suit.

Also, if it is important to you to have a good relationship with the person with whom you disagree, you may find that it is generally easier to rebuild a relationship after mediation than after litigation.

For divorce or child custody cases, parents often find it easier to negotiate a settlement in the interest of all the family members through mediation, dividing responsibilities and shared property with a process that allows more control over the outcome. If the mediator is called into the conflict early, the emotional costs in a breakup can be much lower than they would be in the adversarial court setting.

You need not be currently represented by counsel to take advantage of mediation. Call to find out how your dispute can be resolved economically and quickly.
