    The duration of mediation varies depending on the complexity of the issues and the willingness of the parties to cooperate. However, many mediations can be completed within a few sessions.

  • Do we need to have lawyers present during mediation?

    While having legal representation is not required, it's advisable for each party to consult with an attorney independently to review any agreements reached during mediation and ensure their legal rights are protected.

  • What happens if we can't reach an agreement in mediation?

    If parties are unable to reach an agreement in mediation, they may choose to pursue litigation or explore alternative dispute resolution options. However, the majority of mediations result in mutually acceptable agreements.
