Co-Mediation

Cost-effective Dispute Resolution From experienced CMC accredited mediators with SettleIndex AI risk assessment technology*
Co-mediation is a process in which two mediators work together combining their different skills, perspectives, and expertise. We offer the services of Robert and Richard together at the same rate as for a single mediator.

Co-mediation can be beneficial in more complex cases as it allows for (1) two pairs of eyes and ears, and (2) division of labour thereby saving time and maintaining momentum.

An example of (1) would be getting to grips with complex issues and/or dynamics which a single mediator may take longer to understand.

Examples of (2) would be dividing up (i) management of satellite meetings at the mediation (for example, a meeting between experts), (ii) communications with one or more parties, and/or (iii) satellite discussions and/or negotiations (for example, between co-defendants).

Co-mediation can therefore enhance the speed and quality of service offered increasing the prospect of a successful resolution.

If you choose SettleIndex and Co-mediation in your mediation package, we offer as an option one co-mediator who can (if parties wish) be dedicated solely to helping parties with risk modelling via SettleIndex. That co-mediator will not share SettleIndex’s output with any other party, nor even with the other co-mediator who would be handling the mediation.
