Mediation vs. Arbitration

Mediation and arbitration are generally contractually agreed upon
substitutes for resolving disputes as opposed to resorting to a court to
resolve it. The purpose and goals of mediation and arbitration, however,
are quite different and often misunderstood.

One Mediation: Step-By-Step
How to Prepare
Parties should consider what both sides may want in
negotiating a resolution and prioritize these goals.
Consideration should be paid to the emotional and financial
costs of not resolving the matter, the likelihood of success in
court (if a legal dispute), and what each party may seek and
concede.
If Resolution Is Reached
If an agreement is reached, a document will be drafted that
captures all aspects of the agreements reached. When parties
have legal counsel, this document may include an agreement
for the attorneys to prepare a more formal document that
incorporates the mediation document.
Joint Sessions and Caucuses
Usually the parties begin mediation together in a joint session
led by the mediator. After the mediator's introduction, each
party may give an opening statement about the dispute. While
the mediator may then keep the parties together, frequently
parties are separated into different rooms where the mediator
will "caucus" privately with each party. Caucuses facilitate the
flow of information and offers between the parties.
What to Expect
Prior to most mediation sessions, the mediator may contact
the parties to pinpoint the scope of the dispute and to assist
the parties in preparing for negotiations. Some mediators
request a "statement" of the dispute in advance of their
appointment.

Welcome to One Mediation. . .
Located in Buckhead, One Mediation specializes in providing professional and
confidential mediation and arbitration services. We offer alternatives to resolving
issues, addressing ongoing matters that require significant planning and
negotiation, and legal disputes such as divorce, personal injury, and employment
and business disputes.

Who are we? Meet our panel of professionals by clicking here.

One Mediation is unique in its focus on domestic and family issues. In the divorce
context, we help families navigate these transitions and challenges by focusing
energy on the problem rather than on each other. Find out here why couples
choose to mediate a divorce and some benefits of it.

We also help families who are facing long-term care (e.g., cancer) and elder care
matters. These facilitated family meetings can assist in ensuring that a loved one
has dignity, respect, and safety throughout a challenging time. We help parties
solve problems, resolve issues, and avoid or settle legal matters that may
otherwise result in contentious court battles.

For more information, please visit our blog or visit our centers below.

We also provide families information about the divorce process so that they can
make informed and important decisions. To those ends, One Mediation offers an
informative booklet on Divorce Mediation, offers the "Crash Course Divorce"
seminar, and supports the 2013 Divorce Hot Shot series, sponsored by Visions
Anew Institute.
