Mediation

Mediation.

Among the methods of conflict resolution, we find the figure of mediation. It is a management method that involves the participation of a third party, the mediator, who helps the parties improve communication in order to resolve their disagreements and preserve personal relationships.

The mediator acts in a neutral and impartial manner, using a series of techniques and/or skills that he makes available to the parties in search of agreements.

Mediation is a quick, inexpensive and confidential way to resolve disputes compared to a court process.

It does not imply giving up any rights. If no agreement is reached, once the mediation is completed, legal proceedings can be initiated if they wish.

The flexibility that mediation provides is highly valued, since the agreements can be more creative, unlike through judicial means, in which the solutions are usually more limited. In mediation, agreements are reached that are more adapted to the needs and with a high probability of compliance.

We have been putting it into practice for a long time, counting on a network of expert mediators who will help you find by common agreement the most satisfactory way out of the conflict.

With mediation, solutions are found, after due exploration, of the needs and interests of each party.

Also because of the flexibility that mediation provides, not only in terms of the process itself but also with respect to the content of the agreements that can be reached and in which there are “imaginative” solutions that sometimes go far beyond the solution of the objective conflict. and encompass other facets of the future relationship between the parties. While the judge, when handing down a sentence, must limit himself to upholding or rejecting the claim that has been presented in the lawsuit, the mediation agreement can include everything that the parties consider appropriate, whether or not it has legal content and whether or not it was the subject of of his initial approach to the controversy.

Civil mediation.

Among the matters that we can deal with in the field of civil mediation:

Neighborhood relations.
Right to honor, privacy or own image.
Sales.
Leases.
Contractual breaches…

Family mediation.

In the family sphere, it seems essential to us to initiate an extrajudicial process, on a voluntary basis by both parties in conflict, in which we will help them put an end to disagreements regarding such relevant issues as the amount of pensions, the attribution of use of the family home, the amount of pensions, etc.

It is the General Council of the Judiciary itself that points out the main purposes pursued by this type of family mediation:

- Neighborhood relations.
- Assume the new family situation
- Avoid the winning/losing feeling
- Collaboration and flexibility in changes
- Promote communication
- Reduce tensions
- Limit negative consequences for children.

We must always focus on what is most beneficial for minors.

Commercial mediation.

Mediation is not a method to be used only in cases of conflicts between people in their private sphere. Frictions also arise in the business world for which it can be very useful:

Conflicts between companies.
Conflicts between partners.
Conflicts between Administrator and other partners.
Conflicts between suppliers and clients.

Always look for a “win-win”, mutual benefit and get help from good professionals.

Neighborhood/community mediation.

It is one of the most common mediations, those whose origin is in conflicts within the community in which we live.

It is the one that deals with the resolution of neighborhood and social conflicts, between people from the same urbanization, the same neighborhood, municipality, etc.

This type of mediation often helps not only to resolve existing conflicts, but also to prevent future conflicts that may arise, laying a good foundation for understanding.

Health mediation.

The incorporation of health mediation services in health organizations and in hospitals themselves favors alternative conflict resolution through dialogue.

The health mediation specialist facilitates communication between the parties in conflict, with their main task being to accompany the parties and renew the search for consensual solutions.

Through a health mediation service you can manage, among others:
