What are the benefits of mediation in a family dispute?

Mediators are trained to be impartial and facilitate an agreement between parties that BOTH parties benefit from and BOTH parties agree to.

Mediation in a family dispute can look like:

• A Safe Environment: You’ll have a neutral third party facilitating your discussion, which can be helpful in emotionally charged disputes

• A New Perspective: Being able to have a chance to really listen to the other party might offer a new perspective that you haven’t been able to consider

• A Way Forward: After the mediation, some families choose to request a formal “memorandum of understanding” that outlines what was discussed in the agreement.

• (Hopefully) A Mended Relationship: Oftentimes when the air is cleared, all cards are on the table, and an understanding is reached, a relationship that was rocky before can feel less treacherous.

At Apollo, we believe that relationships matter. If you need help facilitating an uncomfortable dispute between loved ones, we’re here to help!
