After Mediation

If the parties reach settlement, the legal representitives of the parties, or the parties themselves will be asked to construct a simple agreement. The mediator will not write this agreement.

Any agreement reached in mediation will not be legally binding until the agreement is written and signed. If either party does not comply with this signed agreement, the other party may use this in any subsequent legal proceedings.

If there has not been settlement, the parties may agree to enter into overtime. There will be added expense for this and the details will be within the Letter of Appointment. KG Mediation ask all of our mediators to be reasonable in applying when overtime is appropriate. This judgement call will be dependent on how close the mediator feels settlement is.

Should settlement not be reached and overtime not be mutually agreed between the parties, the mediation will be terminated by the mediator and the mediation will end.
