Disputes often happen in many parts of our lives. People will frequently disagree, and it can occur between family members, neighbour complaints, landlords and tenants, couples or in the workplace. In saying this, often it can be challenging to resolve these issues appropriately, and you may need a mediator to help alleviate pressure to resolve a dispute and also help prevent the matter from going to court.
What is dispute resolution?
Dispute resolution is a way to resolve disagreements through mediation to avoid going to court. The process involves the people in the dispute speaking about the problem and then agreeing to solve it. You should seek the help of a mediator if you are struggling to reach a resolution, solution or unable to accept the dispute. An expert mediator is someone impartial to the situation and not involved in the conflict in any way.
