Mediation Resources to Improve Your Skills and Bargaining Position

This may be your first time through the mediation process.  If so, you will probably find it helpful to educate yourself on what mediation is, how it works and what other online resources are available for those seeking mediation.  While your mediator will discuss much of this information with you during the convening and opening stages of the mediation, many of our clients find it useful to do their own research prior to beginning the process.

So, if you'd like to get a jump on the process, the following resources should get you started:
