Can we mediate if the dispute involves a privately owned business, rental property or complicated financial assets?
Yes. Sometimes there are valuation issues, tax questions, financial planning issues that are beyond the expertise of any individual mediator. Therefore, it can become necessary to retain appraisers, financial planners, business evaluators as part of the mediation process. Such persons are retained as neutrals to assist the parties on an “as necessary” basis and only upon the consent of both parties.
