MEDIATION

Mediation helps with any conversation you want to have. Some people come to mediation before there is a conflict, in order to talk things through. Others turn to mediation to have what they know will be a difficult conversation. Many come after a conflict has developed to air feelings, consider options and make agreements. Mediation helps before court action has been taken or even after papers have been filed with a court.
​
Most often mediation results in agreements. But it does much more. Mediation offers you the chance to get a better sense of the situation you face, consider the point of view of others involved, and figure out next steps, with or without reaching an agreement. 

​Whatever difficult situation you face, contact CDRC to find out how we can help.
