Mediation

Mediation is an alternative dispute resolution process which serves as an option to civil litigation in the court system. It is a voluntary, non-binding, structured process where people in conflict can work with the guidance of a neutral party toward the best, most mutually agreeable outcome. Mediation eases the friction between people so that they can pursue a common end without the stress, trauma, cost and uncertainty of civil litigation. Antheil Maslow & MacMinn has a strong team of seasoned attorneys who are trained mediators in the areas of commercial litigation, family and Orphan’s Court matters.  With comprehensive knowledge of each court system, and the challenges and costs inherent to  litigating disputes, our mediators bring a high level of legal acumen and interpersonal skill to every mediation.

All of our mediators take an active, persistent, conciliatory approach to their role.  Our focus is to defuse emotional drivers which may impede progress toward agreement, and boil the conflict down to its practical realities, thereby helping the parties to generate and analyze options, and identify ways to overcome barriers to reach their settlement objectives.
