Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Mediation is a preferred method of settling a dispute if the parties have a long-standing business relationship that they would like to continue because it is a non-adversarial process. In mediation, a neutral third party facilitates a discussion between the parties to help them reach a mutually agreeable resolution, rather than imposing a decision like a judge or arbitrator would. This can help preserve the relationship between the parties and allow them to continue doing business together in the future.
