Mediation

Mediation is an alternative dispute resolution process that allows the parties involved to reach an agreement outside of court, with the help of a neutral and qualified mediator. The mediator helps the parties find an agreed-upon solution while protecting the interests of each of them. Mediation is intended for cases where there is a dispute, but the parties have a common interest in reaching an agreement, even if there are differences of opinion. It is a process that leads to a compromise and resolution of a dispute without the need for legal proceedings.

Mediation is a voluntary process, meaning it is entirely dependent on the will and consent of all parties involved, and any party can terminate the process at any stage. Mediation is open to any area of ​​dispute, for example:

• Business disputes – between partners, competitors, suppliers or customers
• Inheritance – between heirs and family members
• Workplace disputes – between employees and employers, or between employees
• Consumerism – between service providers and customers
• Divorce and family matters – between spouses, during marriage, before marriage or after marriage, including matters related to child care

At the law firm of Ish-Shalom & Co.We believe that mediation is the recommended way for people who wish to avoid the bureaucracy and heavy costs of managing a dispute in the courts. The earlier the parties resort to the procedure, the more likely it is that the need for lengthy and expensive legal proceedings will be avoided.

Mediation is an effective and quick solution, and can be resorted to at any stage of the conflict, as long as a judicial decision has not been made by the court.
