Confidentiality
The mediation process is handled confidentially between the parties involved and not exposed to public scrutiny.
The mediation process is handled confidentially between the parties involved and not exposed to public scrutiny.
Litigation processes are expensive. Alternative dispute resolution can save you a lot of money.
Since the process is not reliant on court schedules, a resolution can be reached much faster.
Parties communicate directly (not through lawyers) providing a more personal experience. Also, the parties involved decide on the outcome - not a judge.
When the conflict is addressed it can assist in improving the relationship between parties.
Jeanetha has more than 20 years experience in various areas of law and compliance, and in recent years expanded her portfolio to include NLP coaching and more recently mediation.
Her legal skills give you the benefit, for her to assist you in identifying the legal components to the conflict.
Jeanetha's main consideration is always first to understand ‘what went wrong’ and her approach to mediation starts with trying to help parties identify the underlying cause for conflict before moving towards addressing it, if they are ready!
Her approach is not prescriptive, and the best end result would be that the outcome of the mediation amounts to not destroying the long-term relationship between the parties.
Where a settlement is required and the parties wish to part ways, that will be done. Where they want to maintain a relationship afterwards, that will also be aimed for.

"Jeanetha is a lawyer with a very sharp intellect and a heart full of empathy. These attributes make it possible for her to see the larger set of facts which make up a problem set and to find fitting solutions to benefit all concerned. Her endurance will be an asset in mediation which I am sure can sometimes be very taxing, while her natural sense for justice will insure fairness is maintained during the solution finding process. I can recommend Jeanetha with an open mind as a mediation facilitator."
