Often people are afraid to approach one another, especially neighbors, to try to resolve issues.

MEDIATION HELPS FORM SUCCESSFUL DEALS
resolution deals
-coaching

Mediation is an effective tool not only for resolving conflict but also for helping parties negotiate a deal and avoid future disputes and costly litigation.

Most negotiations present some of the same barriers to successful resolution that are found in litigation. These barriers may include emotions, strategic posturing, psychological barriers, and more. These tactics can cause deals to sour and break down or reach a deadlock, resulting in missed opportunities or not getting your interests into the agreement.

Through the use of deal mediation, JRB Mediations helps parties get past barriers and explore their interests further towards developing a successful agreement (business or personal). These may be interests or requirements that have not been thought of until an exploratory mediation was conducted or a party was unsure about bringing a particular interest to the table.

Determining what you really want and putting it on the table can help you avoid future disputes, relationship breakdowns, and litigation.

JRB Mediations deal mediation services enables you to focus on developing your partnership and the achieving what you really want in the deal.

ALBERTA CONDOMINIUM PROPERTY ACT USES MEDIATION TO RESOLVE DISPUTES.

The Alberta Condominium Property Act and Regulation (updated in 2000) recognizes the use of mediation and arbitration to resolve disputes other than court action (section 77).
Resolving Disputes

If a condominium dispute cannot be resolved by speaking directly with the person involved or filing a complaint with the condo board, then it can be resolved using mediation and/or arbitration as an alternative to court action.

Mediation and/or arbitration are processes that involve using an objective third party--a mediator. A mediator helps the parties negotiate their own resolution to the problem, whereas an arbitrator makes a decision for the parties after all the parties present their cases.

All those involved need to agree on the process and on a mediator or arbitrator. If they cannot agree on a mediator or arbitrator then one can be appointed to them. The parties involved pay the costs of the dispute resolution.
