Mediation

Resolving Disputes Another Way

Arbitration and mediation are increasingly used to resolve disputed matters through faster and more cost-effective means than trial. In an arbitration proceeding, the parties present their case to a neutral, third-party arbitrator, who renders a decision on the merits – much the same way a judge or jury would render a decision.

In mediation, a neutral mediator works with the parties to help them resolve their differences outside the courtroom and without the need for a trial. Many contracts require arbitration, and South Carolina requires that the parties to a case go through mediation before proceeding to trial.

Smith Closser has extensive experience in both arenas, and our attorneys have represented a number of clients in arbitration and mediation proceedings, ranging from short hearings to multi-day arbitration trials and negotiations.
