Mediation Position Statement

Mediation Position

Statement

Mediation is a voluntary conﬁdential process that allows two or more

disputing parties resolve their conﬂict in a mutually agreeable way

with the help of a neutral third party, a mediator.

Mediation focuses on the interests or needs of the parties and on solutions,

not on determining or assigning blame. The mediator does not impose a

solution but rather works with all parties to create their own solution. All

parties should participate in the mediation in the spirit of compromise with the

goal and intention of achieving a settlement of the case.

This statement is made solely for the purposes of a mediation of this dispute. It is conﬁdential and will be

copied to the mediator prior to the mediation, but not to the other case party.

Question 1: What do you hope to achieve through this mediation hearing?

To increase the chances of a successful outcome please consider what you would like to achieve before the mediation

commences. Please consider the best possible outcome from your point of view but also what might be an acceptable

outcome should this not be feasible. Please consider what you may need to do to achieve this outcome.
