Mediation & Arbitration

Resolving business disputes through courtroom litigation can be expensive and time-consuming. Although litigation may be the best choice under certain circumstances, many businesses and individuals have found that their objectives are better served by hiring a settlement lawyer.

At Foley Mansfield, we provide neutral mediation services to help you and your company resolve a wide range of business conflicts. Our mediators provide thoughtful, diplomatic and cost-efficient mediation services to business and individuals for a wide range of conflicts.

We also bring noteworthy experience with extremely complex liability matters to bear in mediating those especially difficult, emotional disputes involving catastrophic injury or other life-altering events.

Many of our attorneys regularly serve as arbitrators and/or mediators for the American Arbitration Association and other organizations. We invite you to take advantage of our training and experience in resolving your disagreements.

Our Mediation Philosophy

In a nutshell, we do our homework before the first meeting, carefully reviewing the position of each party before the mediation, and having frank and thorough conversations upfront to ensure that on mediation day, both parties can come together.
