Mediation

MEDIATION IS.....
  • A process   involving a    trained third-party    (mediator), who guides    participants   through a   time of dialogue and decision-making  to resolve   the dispute. 
We have experience successfully mediating: 
  • Neighborhood disputes
  • Landlord/tenant    disputes
  • Family disputes
  • Custody disputes                      

Role of Mediators
Mediators seek to assist  parties in understanding one another and in reaching agreements. They will help the parties identify the issues and interests in need of resolution and encourage the parties to brainstorm solutions.  
Mediators do not:
  • make decisions for you and/or the other person about how your dispute will be resolved
  • determine who is “right” or “wrong.” There is no value in trying to persuade the mediator of the "merits of your case"
  • provide legal counsel

"I had tried to resolve the issue by contacting the individual and the Code Enforcement Officer to resolve the issue without having to go to the expense of a court hearing. The Code Enforcement Officer informed me of NDS...when we met I did not have much hope as all other avenues had not produced desired results. In no time, with this renewed intervention, we were both talking and resolving our issue. It was great how easy this process was...I would highly recommend this process, and hopefully your issue will be resolved as easily as my issue was."    - Diane
