Mediation offered by CMUS is free and is a voluntary and confidential dispute resolution process in which a neutral mediator assists parties in finding a lasting win-win solution to their conflict. Mediation lets people speak for themselves and they — not the mediator — control the decisions and the outcome. Mediation is an alternative to non-resolution or costly legal measures.
