Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can the same lawyer act as both legal representative and mediator?
A: No. To maintain absolute neutrality, our mediators cannot provide legal representation to any party involved in the mediation.
Q: Do I need legal representation if I use a mediator?
A: While not required, we recommend seeking legal advice during mediation. We can either represent you or refer you to external counsel.
Q: How do you maintain mediator independence within a law firm?
A: Our mediation division operates independently with strict ethical walls, separate staff, and dedicated facilities to ensure complete neutrality.
Q: What's the difference between having your firm represent me in mediation versus using your independent mediator services?
A: As your legal representatives, we advocate for your interests. Our independent mediators, however, remain neutral and don't advocate for either party.
