Commercial Mediation
Caroline Kelly Mediation Room
Saving Time, Money and Reputations
Caroline Kelly Mediation Room will facilitate the resolution of disputes between individuals and businesses that are involved in any commercial transaction. The goal of commercial mediation is to reach a mutually acceptable agreement that resolves the dispute efficiently and cost-effectively without recourse to costly and time consuming litigation.
Benefits of Commercial Mediation are:
- Information Exchange : Each party is given the opportunity to present their perspective on the dispute and exchange relevant information including documents and witness statements. All information is subject to confidentiality unless otherwise agreed between the parties to the dispute.
- Negotiations and Problem Solving : The mediator facilitates negotiations between the parties either in single sessions (caucuses) or in joint sessions where they can discuss their concerns, interests and potential solutions to the dispute. The mediator helps the parties brainstorm, explore creative and realistic solutions and overcome difficulties in reaching an agreement.
- Minimising Stress and Costs :
Commercial mediation has the benefits of a quicker resolution and saves costs. It gives the parties greater control over the outcome as well as providing an opportunity for preservation or improvement of the business relationship. Overall, mediation is less stressful than going to Court and it will cause less disruption to the operation of the business than litigation.
