AMICUS MEDIATION
Mediation is a process in which a neutral third party assists those involved in a dispute to communicate better with one another and reach their own agreed and informed agreement, rather than having a solution imposed.
Amicus provides a service which is:
- Voluntary – participation in mediation is always voluntary
- Impartial & Neutral – the mediation is conducted in a fair and even-handed way and the mediator remains neutral as to the outcome of the mediation.
- Confidential – discussions which may be had during mediation are always confidential to all parties including the mediator and legally privileged.
- Flexible – allows for tailored terms of agreement. Where necessary, it may incorporate legal and other expert representation within the process, in order to inform the participants and support their decisions.
- Win Win Solutions – mediation promotes a collaborative approach to resolving conflict thereby promoting a win win solution for all parties.
Amicus provides a dispute resolution service which can reduce costs and time for those in dispute and provide a flexible sustainable agreement for the future.
Testimonial
“When my Business partner suggested getting mediation to sort out some ongoing difficulties I was somewhat wary to begin with. I didn’t want to discuss confidential business affairs with some body outside the business nor did I want to revisit the problems as any time we had previously done so, we just went round and round in circles, and every body got more frustrated without resolving anything.
However, I was convinced to give it a try, and it was one of the best business decisions we ever made.
The entire process is 100% confidential, and based on mutual respect and empowerment, about finding a resolve that is in the best interest of both parties concerned. Until then, I really didn’t think we could both come out on top; there had to be a winner and a loser. Thankfully I was wrong on that count.
The mediation took a couple of weeks, and the outcomes have made such a difference to the way we do business. We can both see things in a much clearer light, and work processes run smoother as Amicus broke down our communication difficulties and without ever telling us what to do, guided us to the best possible outcome – for us and the business.
I would recommend this service to any one who is having difficulties and can’t seem to find an answer. It will save you a lot of sleepless nights, money and stress, and will give you the communication tools needed to aid conflict resolution and take the positives from every situation.
I have learned that the answer is always within our-selves; sometimes we just need someone to show us how to use the guide map”.
