Business Mediation

Any dispute can be mediated, including those civil disputes involving contracts, leases, small business ownership, employment, and other business issues.

Although there are hundreds of thousands of laws, many types of common disputes simply do not raise a legal claim that can be taken to court. Disputes between family members, employees or neighbors often are of this nature. Fortunately, mediation is available even when courts are not.

For example, a successful family-owned business may be struggling with the issues that arise as the founder/owner looks to pass on ownership and/or control of the business. There may be varying levels of interest among the family members who believe they are entitled to ownership of the business. Mediation can provide the parties with a safe, non-threatening process that addresses the underlying interests and concerns of the parties and, with their agreement, assists the family in addressing the issues. Clearly, the family is interested in maintaining both the business and the family relationships, both of which could be negatively impacted by protracted adversarial litigation.
