In which state does JT Mediates operate?

JT Mediates provides mediation and arbitration services throughout Florida.

What is the difference between mediation and arbitration?

Mediation is a collaborative process where a neutral third party helps disputing parties reach a voluntary agreement. Arbitration, on the other hand, involves a neutral arbitrator who listens to both sides and then makes a binding decision.

How long does the mediation/arbitration process take?

The duration can vary depending on the complexity of the case. Mediation can often be resolved in a few sessions, while arbitration might take longer but is typically faster than going to court.

Is the outcome of mediation/arbitration confidential?

Yes, both mediation and arbitration are private processes, and the details remain confidential, protecting the interests and privacy of all parties involved.

Can I still go to court if mediation/arbitration doesn't work?

If mediation does not result in an agreement, you can still pursue other legal avenues. Arbitration decisions, however, are typically binding and enforceable, with limited grounds for appeal.

Do I need a lawyer for mediation or arbitration?

While you are not required to have a lawyer, you may choose to have legal representation, especially for arbitration. Having a lawyer can help you understand your rights and the implications of the process.
