Mediation's Greatest Attribute...Simplicity
"There's no need for a formal setting, no need for a particular format, no discovery, no testimony, no one under oath. All mediation needs is a valid dispute, people interested in resolving the dispute, and a neutral third party to direct these efforts. Mediation is at its most useful and compelling when it is simple, easy, time efficient, inexpensive, and prompt."
---Fred R. Butterworth, a Lawyer of more than 40 years
