Mediation By Zoom

Business Mediation Practice Areas

In the USA, the top business disputes include contracts, employment, leadership, financial matters, and business vs. other businesses. Of 20 million commercial lawsuits annually, 60% are contract cases (average cost $91,000 [Court Statistics Project]). The Bureau of Justice Statistics reports the median judgment in a contract trial is $35,000 and punitive damages are $68,000. Any business that deals with people (vendors, customers, employees…) and products or services will have disputes that, when unresolved, often turn into expensive lawsuits. Additionally, lawsuits are often the root of public information that ruins relationships, brands, and public confidence. Our mediator is here to help you make peace.

Mediation resolves disputes privately, out of court. Gale Allison, as an impartial mediator, helps all sides communicate with each other and avoid confrontation to arrive at a written, signed solution.

Mediating Business Disagreements
Controversies arise from verbal promises, assumptions, misunderstandings, partner philosophies, company policies and procedures, and even outright claims of theft. The problems can be messy and distracting. When they are “insider knowledge”, it is hard for employees and leaders to stay on track. When they become public knowledge, the disputes often spur expensive lawsuits with public, Court-ordered solutions that can potentially ruin the company.
