When individuals may have worked together successfully for many years before their mutual trust dissolves, the advantages of mediation over litigation are particularly apparent. These cases can be highly emotive, and a skilled mediator is able not simply to understand the complexities of the issues and the legal standing of the parties involved, but also take these further pressures into account in seeking a resolution that serves everybody’s best interests.
