What is Mediation?
[/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=“transparent“ up=“35″ down=“0″][vc_column_text]Mediation is a voluntary procedure for an out-of-court settlement of a conflict. To come to an agreement, in mediation the disputants develop solutions to their conflict self-determinedly and autonomously with the help of a neutral.
Mediation is a procedure that leaves decision making power and freedom of choice to the parties. Because autonomy is left to the parties, they perceive mediation as a very fair procedure.[/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=“transparent“ up=“35″ down=“0″][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text]

6 Principles of Mediation
[/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=“transparent“ up=“35″ down=“0″]
Confidentiality
Mediation is a strictly confidential procedure. Everything that is discussed in the context of mediation does not leave the space of mediation and may not be used in court.
[/vc_column_text]
Voluntary Nature
Mediation is a voluntary process. Both parties must agree to the mediation in advance. The mediation can be terminated at any time by one of the parties.
[/vc_column_text]
Neutrality and Impartiality of the Mediator
Mediation guarantees you impartiality of the mediator. This means equal treatment of all disputants.
[/vc_column_text]
Autonomy
The parties control the process and decide on a potential solution. The mediator supports the negotiation process.
[/vc_column_text]
Knowledgeability
In the course of the mediation the parties inform each other about their interests and can make informed decisions.
[/vc_column_text]
Results-openness
Mediation is not determined to a certain result, but results-open, flexible and creative. The procedure is adapted to the needs of the parties.
