OUR APPROACH
Our mediators work with all the persons involved to understand the situation and their needs. Bridge Mediation usually uses a negotiation methodology known as interest-based or principled negotiation. This approach enables the parties to focus on resolving the problem using a structured results-oriented process in order to reach mutually acceptable outcomes.
We meet with all the parties prior to the mediation to provide details of the mediation process and to address any concerns or questions about the mediation process.
The Mediator Standards Board recommends that all parties involved in a dispute and considering mediation should read a copy of the Practice Standards for Mediation. This document informs all participants in a mediation about what they can expect with respect to the mediation process and the mediator.
