What Happens If There Is No Settlement No Agreement After a Mediation Attorney

All Lawsuits Always Settle Every Time, Not True!

You may be confused about this statement, that all lawsuits always settle every time. Well, it is true, sometimes there is not a meeting of the minds to be had, and some lawsuits do not and can not settle. Of course you understand, that on television when there is a lawsuit on the merits of the claim, it usually settles out and resolves before the final commercial break. That is super convenient for the actors in the reality television series, but does not often mimic what happens in real life.

Why Some Lawsuits Do Not Settle After Mediation?

Okay, let’s start at the most practical place to explain what typically happens with a mediated lawsuit. That is to start at the beginning, and go over the stages of a mediation. Mediations often come about because the parties are bound by them, they do agree to them, or it is a chance to settle the dispute and resolve it out of court. The five general stages of a mediation are:

1. Review of the case and sitting down with the parties.
2. Opening discussions regarding the claim and case, focusing on the needs and wants of the parties.
3. Opening up private discussions if necessary with the mediator from both or all sides.
4. Once the offers are set for each party, the mediator brings the offers to the table for discussion.
5. The parties work with the mediator to reach a settlement that meets the major needs of all parties to the discussion and case.

Unfortunately, some people who are mediators are not good enough at their jobs, to help mediate a situation between two parties to get to a successful conclusion. The process of using a mediator sounds like a great idea as an alternative to going to court, until it isn’t working. Often, a judge can suggest a mediation instead of taking up valuable time in court, when the parties are close to settling a case, but are not quite there on either side to come to an agreement on the final terms.
