Mediation

Mediation

HelpNet's Mediation service is a process whereby a trained mediation professional assists disputing parties with resolving legal issues.  Our mediators do not give legal advice but can offer their opinion regarding settlement solutions and are experts in structuring settlement agreements.  Smart consumers are choosing mediation as a first-step in resolving legal issues.

The facts are compelling:

• Over 80% of legal cases settle in mediation.
• Mediation costs less than a third of traditional legal services.
• Most courts are requiring parties to mediate their dispute before they can proceed to trial in civil and domestic matters.

By simply contacting HelpNet, members are directed to an experienced and trained mediator in their local area.  Mediators are available to help resolve disputes affordably and confidentially.

HelpNet can provide members with the option of retaining a qualified mediator to assist them in resolving cases such as:

• Civil matters including: contractural disputes, real estate, landlord tenant, collections, consumer disputes, buy/sell agreements, small claims matters and many others.
• Family matters including: divorce, child custody, child support, parenting agreements, family crisis, elder care, probate/will matters, and many others.
