Legal cover benefit

Mediation & negotiation

You don't always have to go to court to resolve a legal dispute - we'll mediate first to find a fair, practical and pocket-friendly solution.

Settle disagreements calmly without stepping into court 

When conflict over contracts, money, work or family become bigger than a conversation, legal action doesn't have to mean a long, costly court battle. We start with informal mediation - calling, writing, and negotiating on your behalf - to protect your interests and work toward a fair and mutually beneficial outcome.

Keep private matters private

Mediation keeps personal and financial matters private and takes much of the stress out of finding a solution. It's usually faster and far more affordable than going to court, and we successfully resolve most cases this way. If negotiation doesn't work out, we'll already know your situation and can take more formal legal steps.

LAW FOR ALL’s mediation & negotiation benefit includes:

Unlimited mediation by phone, email and written correspondence
Negotiating practical solutions to resolve disputes
Preparing settlement proposals & agreements

Frequently asked questions
about our mediation & negotiation benefit

Find answers to the questions we get asked most often about our policies and legal services.

Mediation is about resolving disagreements through conversations, not conflict. We start by understanding your side of the situation and the outcome you're hoping for. Then we reach out to the other party to open a calm, constructive conversation. From there, we explore possible solutions together and look for common ground, Our role is to keep things fair, focused and respectful while guiding both sides toward a solution that works.

Our legal professionals will work to resolve your matter as quickly as possible. But, it all depends on how complex the situation is and how willing everyone is to engage. Some disputes are resolved fairly quickly within days, while others take a few weeks or more if the issues need more discussion. Our focus is always to keep the process moving forward and reduced any unnecessary stress.

There is no limit on how many cases we'll mediate for you. Anytime a personal dispute happens or you need legal support, you can reach out to us. Whether is a small disagreement or a more complicated dispute, you can count on us to help you find an effective resolution.

While we have a strong track record of s resolving disputes through mediation, there are times when the other party won't engage or the issue is too serious to settle informally. In these cases, we'll submit a claim to our Litigations Claims team to assess whether it qualifies for legal representation. If the claim is approved, we'll appoint an attorney to represent you in court.

If the other party doesn't follow through on what was agreed, we'll address it with them directly. If that still doesn't resolve things, we'll have to consider whether or not taking formal is the best bet. If you qualify for legal representation, we'll appoint one of our panel attorneys to take the case further in court.
