There is a better path forward. Let us show you the way.
What is Mediation?
Mediation is a faster, friendlier, and cheaper way to resolve legal or personal disputes, outside of court. In a mediation, a neutral mediator (with no decision-making authority) helps two or more parties communicate their needs and interests, identify their issues, consider their options, and voluntarily reach a mutually beneficial resolution. Because the parties design their own solution, mediation can resolve any issue important to them, not just their underlying legal dispute(s).
Advantages of Mediation
- Dispute is resolved sooner (usually in one session)
- Parties control the outcome (not a judge or jury)
- Process is confidential, informal, and flexible (unlike litigation)
- Attorneys are not necessary (although they are welcome)
Our Mediation Style
There are many styles of mediation. We use a combination of facilitative, transformative, and evaluative techniques based on the type of case and the needs of the parties. Our goal is to focus on the issues and impartially guide the parties toward an agreement without the use of pressure tactics or our influence.
About Us
CALEMM (cal-umm) MEDIATION provides dispute resolution services (including settlement negotiation) to individuals and businesses whether or not they are attorney-represented. It is not necessary for either party to have filed a lawsuit in Court before engaging in mediation. In fact, it may save the parties time and money to try to resolve the matter before filing suit.
CALEMM MEDIATION’s logo is a cairn—a stack of stones raised for a purpose. While different types of cairns have various meanings and uses, cairns are commonly used to mark trails and paths that are not obvious. Using mediation as a tool in settlement negotiation and dispute resolution is not an obvious path—but it might just be a better path.
"The courts of this country should not be the places where resolution of disputes begins. They should be the places where the disputes end after alternative methods of resolving disputes have been considered and tried."
- Sandra Day O’Connor
