In this article, we're going to look at meditaion as a low-cost option for resolving disputes across Business, Estates and Property.
Mediation is a structured, interactive process for resolving disputes, either within families or business. With mediation, an impartial third party supports the disputing parties to resolve their conflict through the use of specialized communication and negotiation techniques. All participants in mediation are encouraged to participate in the process actively.

Mediation has an important role to play in the field of inheritance disputes These can be particularly unpleasant -
Time – Parties can decide to go to mediation at any point in a dispute. A case from start to finish could take up to 18 months or even longer. Litigation can be very stressful for all parties involved and mediation could assist with a settlement much earlier on. Mediations often settle on the day or shortly afterwards.
More Control – Taking your inheritance dispute to mediation means you’ll have more control over the terms of the agreement. At trial, it’s the Judge who decides on the outcome.
Lower Costs – There are costs involved in mediation, but they’re far lower than those involved if your dispute goes to court. Bear in mind that mediation doesn’t guarantee you the best financial settlement. However, the money saved on court costs may well give the best result in the long run.
