Falmouth
Mediation is a full-service, client-centered mediation practice focusing on divorce, family and business mediation. We proudly serve the communities, and
surrounding areas, of Upper Cape Cod.
Falmouth Mediation is dedicated to advancing an affordable forum for
assisting
families, individuals, groups and businesses to develop their own fair
and lasting solutions without the large investment of time and money or
the antagonism and stress that adversarial litigation almost always requires.
We believe that, generally, most disputes do not
need to be resolved using the adversarial court system. When the courts are involved, cases often
exhaust the parties' emotional and financial resources, result in a decision
being imposed on the parties, and generally produce a
poor outcome for everyone. For this reason we limit Falmouth
Mediation to out-of-court resolutions of conflict. Because we are
not involved with litigated cases, our services are targeted, affordable and responsive to the needs of the clients rather than spent on lengthy and inefficient
court appearances or emergency filings. As a result, we can control our clients’ costs
to a greater degree than we would be able to do if we were litigating
their case. Most importantly, our focus on non-adversarial mediation and
client self-determination enables us to direct our attention to listening and helping our clients make their own responsible decisions to resolve
matters and find the best solution for all concerned.
Working without any professional help and
engaging in an all-out litigation war are two ends of the spectrum,
neither of which is desirable by the vast majority of people. We urge you to contact us to explore the wide range of services that we offer to help you resolve your conflicts.
