General civil mediation seeks to resolve a variety of disputes. Our general civil mediators are volunteers who have received a minimum of 40 hours of training specifically on civil mediation, as well as observation and co-mediation practice before mediating cases for Conflict Resolution Services.

General civil mediation provides a unique opportunity to have a say in how your dispute is resolved. Unlike going before a judge who determines the outcome, mediation is an opportunity for you to discuss options for resolution in a structured environment with the help of a state-trained mediator. Many cases resolved through mediation allow both parties to walk away pleased with the outcome instead of having a winning and losing party in a courtroom.

Mediation works. In fact, the Michigan Supreme Court recognizes its value and supports local mediation centers, like Conflict Resolution Services.
