Mediation

Mediation is now mandatory for many cases filed in Florida state courts, as well as in many other state courts, and is becoming more wide-spread in federal court cases. Our attorneys are not mediators. Rather, we represent employers when employment lawsuits and charges are mediated. An experienced mediator can often bring the parties to agreement in a much earlier and less expensive stage than would be the case if they went to trial. Our experience in the selection of the mediator and our understanding of the mediation process, coupled with our negotiating skills, can facilitate the process and help our clients achieve their objectives. We actively pursue this form of alternative dispute resolution on behalf of our clients in appropriate cases to reduce litigation costs and avoid protracted, time-consuming judicial proceedings.
