Is mediation right for everybody?
No single dispute resolution option is right for everyone. Mediation, in particular, may not be suitable if one or both parties has unmanaged substance abuse, mental health, or anger-management issues. If you do not want to agree, or you are unwilling to be flexible, then you are not ready for mediation. A mediator will help both of you evaluate your readiness for mediation, either during your initial telephone call, or during your orientation session.
