MEDIATION & NEGOTIATION
Not all disputes need to be litigated. Often, mediation is the better way to resolve disputes. Apart from being time and cost efficient, it allows parties to take control of the process and offers an opportunity for achieving a win-win outcome. More importantly, it has the potential of saving relationships, be it personal or business.
