The mediation process can solve many disputes in a short time. Most mediation sessions usually last between 1-2 days. Also, mediation is far less expensive than litigation. Two factors for this is because there is a reduced amount of separation between parties and because both parties are hiring one professional. Mediation allows the parties to deal directly with each other, rather than relying on attorneys and paying an expensive hourly rate.
