The mediation team at Benard + Associates looks forward to assisting you with your conflict resolution needs.

Mediation

Often when people think about mediation they see three people in a room with two of them arguing and the third person trying to keep the peace. While this scenario is possible, our vision of mediation is far more civilized. Mediation is an alternative dispute resolution process where parties in dispute work with a neutral third party (mediator) to resolve their issues. The focus is on communication and assisting the people in dispute to develop THEIR solution. The mediator is there to facilitate that process.
