Illinois Mediation Attorney

If you wish to settle a legal dispute amicably without going to court or engaging in traditional legal negotiations between lawyers, mediation may be the right choice for you. Mediation is a process in which two parties come to a mutually acceptable agreement with the help of an impartial third party—mediator. The mediator facilitates the discussion between the parties to find a reasonable solution to their dispute. Attorney Carol Cádiz is a skilled mediator experienced in assisting individuals in finding solutions that work in each party’s best interests.

While a mediator does not have the legal authority to compel a decision in a case, the mediator plays a vital role in the mediation process. A good mediator has the ability to see both sides of a disagreement and offer insight and advice that assists in resolving the problem. Attorney Carol Cádiz uses her legal experience and knowledge as a psychology major to help find creative solutions in her mediations. She believes in listening carefully to the perspectives of each party involved in order to help create a settlement that works in each party’s favor.

Benefits of Mediation

There are many reasons why individuals choose to first try mediation before moving their dispute into the legal system.
