What is Small Claims Mediation?
An interest-based process where an impartial mediator guides people to resolve their conflict through discussion and negotiation.
A private and confidential process that empowers the parties to explore options for resolution.
An opportunity to create a settlement, which becomes a written contract between the parties.
Issues commonly negotiated in Small Claims Mediation
Payment plans
Return of property
Work exchange
Communication
Realistic, workable solutions
And more!
Mediation for a small claims case is strongly recommended. Parties are often able to consider remedies to resolve the dispute that the district court is not able to address. Mediation may offer a more satisfying resolution when both parties retain control over the outcome.
