WHY DOES YOUR SALES AGREEMENT INCLUDE MEDIATION?

* MEDIATION IS CONSUMER FRIENDLY!

* Mediation is easier, faster and less expensive than litigation.

* Mediation is non-adversarial.

* A Mediator does not pass judgment.

* A Mediator serves to help the parties open communication, identify their differences and reach agreement on how to resolve their differences.

* A Mediator assists disputing parties in reaching a mutually acceptable solution to everyone's satisfaction.

* In mediation, when an agreement is reached, a written agreement (Memorandum of Understanding) is developed which outlines the terms of the settlement.

* If the parties cannot reach a mutually agreeable settlement through mediation, they are free to arbitrate or litigate their dispute as if the mediation never took place.
