What is Mediation?

Mediation is a method of alternative dispute resolution, where a mediator (neutral-third party) helps resolve multiple issues between parties, usually without having to go to trial. In Ohio, Mediation can be voluntary, or court ordered commonly in Family Law Settings. Mediation in Cincinnati can be used to solve court issues in terms of:

  • Small Claims Court
  • Civil Cases
  • Juvenile Court
  • Probate Court
  • Criminal Diversion Programs

Mediators are not a part of the conversation to make decision for you or the other party. They bridge the communication gap so both sides can be more easily understood. Family law mediators can help negotiate and find common ground between parties, but ultimately it is up to you and the other side what you want the final resolution to be. When an agreement is reached it can then be put into writing to be legally binding.
