Mediation Agreement

Document Description:

A Mediation Agreement is a contract used when two parties agree to use mediation instead of the courts to resolve a dispute. In the mediation process, a mediator offers the disputing parties private and confidential assistance to help them find a way to resolve their differences. The mediator does not impose a solution and the process is generally a faster and more economical alternative to the court system.

This type of agreement reflects an increasingly popular form of dispute resolution and it absolutely needs to be in writing and signed by both parties. Mediation can save business relationships as it is designed to promote reconciliation.

This is an excellent template to use to enter into a mediation agreement as it outlines the objectives and framework of the mediation process.
