Helpful Information Before You Begin

Do both parties need to be in the same location?

No. Mediation sessions can take place virtually, allowing participants to join from separate locations. In-person sessions may also be available in Kanata.

What if we don’t agree?

Agreement is not guaranteed. The mediator facilitates structured discussions, helps identify the issues in dispute and supports the parties in exploring possible solutions. The parties remain responsible for deciding whether an agreement can be reached.

Are mediation agreements legally binding?

Terms reached in mediation are not automatically legally binding. Parties may choose to have their mediated terms incorporated into a formal agreement and should obtain independent legal advice about their rights and the legal effect of any agreement before signing.

How much does mediation cost?

Fees vary depending on the service and nature of the matter. A complimentary 15-minute consultation is available to discuss the process and services required. Please contact Goodyear Mediation for current fee information.
