Question: What can I expect prior to and during Mediation?

• We hold separate confidential interviews with each party. We cannot disclose anything they tell us unless they authorize us to do so. During the interview we show them how to air their gripes in a non-adversarial and productive manner.

• On completing the interviews we have 'the whole story'. We learn about each person's perceptions and hidden agenda that seldom surface when they meet on their own. We have an insight that none of the other parties has genrally seen or understood. Our task is to help them develop this picture.

• Prior to a group meeting we often submit to each party a set of questions, developed from what we learned in the individual interviews. We review their answers and prepare for the mediation where we facilitate a discussion of all that was previously unspoken.
