MEDIATION

If you’re looking for the simplest, most cost and time effective support, mediation is right for you.

If you are looking to avoid court, but have a dispute to settle, mediation is for you. 

Court outcomes can be unpredictable, unfeeling, and unhelpful. Mediation offers participants the chance for creative problem solving from an intermediary who can fully understand the situation without the constraints of rules of evidence or procedure.

As a certified mediator and neutral party, our CEO, Keenan Holmes, helps get to resolution quickly – saving everyone stress, time, and money.

Mediation offers the benefits of:

  • Cost-effectiveness: mediation services are the most cost effective dispute resolution option available. 
  • Control: unlike court, where there is little control over the outcome, mediation offers more control over the outcome, usually resulting in win-win.
  • Confidentiality: everything shared in our mediation process is kept confidential. 
  • Speed: busy people need (quick) resolutions, and mediation gives that possibility.
  • Customization: each mediation is unique, and Keenan understands that, so expect a mediation that is tailored to all participants.

Mediation is for anyone looking to solve a dispute with another party such as:

  • Divorce
  • Business disputes
  • Contract disputes
  • Custody battles
  • Property disputes  
  • An issue headed towards court (but still avoidable)
  • And more

If you are experiencing a personal or business disagreement and would like to avoid the most expensive path to remedy it, mediation is for you.

How Does Mediation Work?

With Mediation, the Goal is Quick Resolution

We do this by starting a mediation process, outside the court of law, that allows both parties to be heard by a mediator, in our case, Keenan, who then helps everyone come to a mutual solution.

Mediations move swiftly, with a resolution being found generally in one to a few days. This is purposeful – participants don’t have time, energy, or money to waste on the costly back and forth or dragging on that court requires.

Mediation is the most cost-effective dispute resolution strategy. Unlike litigation, participants (often) split the costs of mediation, have a solution in days, and avoid the costliest of legal fees. 

The Ebony Mediation

Ebony’s mediation process is unique in ways that only benefit the participants. 

Keenan offers a pre-mediation process that occurs a few days before the actual mediation. This is a time for both parties to speak with Keenan, the mediator, in confidence and share relevant information. 

By having this pre-mediation meeting, we don’t waste time the day of the mediation getting up to speed – everyone has been able to share their story fully, Keenan has been able to listen fully, and now all parties come together the day of the mediation prepared to find a resolution. 

If you’re looking for the simplest, most cost and time effective support,, mediation is right for you.
