Mediation is a voluntary, collaborative process in which one or more impartial mediators facilitate the communication between disputing parties in order to resolve the conflict.
Unlike arbitration or litigation, where one side "wins" and the other side "loses", the goal of mediation is to help the disputing parties come to an agreement that satisfies everyone.
WACommerce offers several mediation and facilitation services to address all types of conflict offering innovative, cost-effective methods to settle disputes throughout the Pacific Northwest.
