What Does a Mediation Attorney Do?
Mediation attorneys wear many hats throughout the mediation process. From legal experts to skilled negotiators, they play key roles in ensuring the success of the mediation process.
Here are some of their key responsibilities:
-
Act as a Neutral Third Party
The primary responsibility of a mediation attorney is to remain an unbiased facilitator. They are not there to “win” for one party but to ensure that discussions remain productive and focused on finding solutions that benefit everyone involved.
-
Facilitate Communication
Many conflicts stem from miscommunication or a lack of clarity between parties. Mediation attorneys ensure that both sides have a safe and structured space to voice their concerns and opinions. With their expertise, they help bridge communication gaps and prevent discussions from escalating into heated arguments.
-
Provide Legal Insights
While they don’t represent either party, mediation attorneys utilize their legal expertise to explain any applicable regulations, laws, or consequences relevant to the dispute. Their knowledge acts as a guide, helping parties understand their rights and options during the negotiation process.
-
Craft Custom Solutions
Unlike court rulings, which often impose a one-size-fits-all decision, mediation allows parties to explore creative and custom solutions that meet their unique needs. Mediation attorneys help brainstorm and refine these resolutions, ensuring they are practical, legal, and equitable.
-
Prepare Legally Binding Agreements
Once parties reach an agreement, a mediation attorney may draft the settlement or collaborate with both parties’ legal counsel to ensure it’s legally binding. This prevents future disputes and guarantees all terms are clearly outlined and enforceable.
