About Cook ADR Mediation Services
Why Choose Cook ADR For Mediation Services?
· Confidential and Fair
Arizona mediation is a confidential dispute resolution process overseen by a mediator, who acts as a neutral third party. This mediation process is voluntary and non-binding, meaning that the parties involved have complete control over the entire process and outcome. They are not obligated to accept any proposed solution and can continue to negotiate until they reach an agreement. If they choose, the parties can voluntarily settle the matter by agreeing to a joint settlement agreement. The mediator does not provide legal advice, serve as a judge, or make decisions regarding the case. Instead, the mediator’s role is to facilitate a fruitful discussion that aids the parties in finding a solution that both agree is workable.
· Party-Controlled
The terms of any mutually-agreed-upon settlement agreement are binding. If the parties cannot reach a settlement through mediation, they can choose to continue the mediation session at a later time or discontinue it, which usually leads to arbitration or litigation if necessary.
· Helpful Third-Party Neutral
During any mediation session, Cook ADR helps the parties resolve disputes efficiently by finding a solution that will settle the case and reduce the need for further arbitration and litigation. The mediation services offered by Cook ADR can be provided in-person or virtually, depending on what may be most beneficial for the parties. For more information, feel free to contact Cook ADR.
