DISPUTE RESOLUTION GUIDE
In our courts, judges decide winners and losers of disputes; arbitrators do so in private hearings. But in mediation, mediators help parties resolve their disputes on their own terms by listening and asking questions to discover their needs and interests and ways to meet them for both sides. However, many disputes can be resolved without the intervention of a neutral third party if the disputing parties can simply listen to one another using the skills of a mediator. This free tool is designed to assist people to do so.
