IDR Ltd. Mediation Services
Mediation is a private, informal process in which parties voluntarily participate in a joint effort to reach a settlement. Mediation provides a confidential, low cost process that promotes respectful and constructive communication to manage conflict between two or more parties.
IDR Ltd. acts as a neutral third party, the mediator, to facilitate discussions among the parties, assist in defining the issues, address the barriers to resolution and facilitate a mutually acceptable settlement.
