About
Individuals signing the “Mediate First” Pledge agree to first explore the use of mediation to resolve disputes arising in the course of their dealings or operations, as the case may be, before pursuing other dispute resolution processes or court litigation.
The Pledge
I recognise that for many different types of disputes, mediation can offer a less expensive and more effective method of resolution than court litigation. With this in mind, I subscribe to the following statement of principle:
Should a dispute arise in the course of my dealings or operations, as the case may be, with other parties, I am prepared to first explore the use of mediation to resolve the dispute, before pursuing other dispute resolution processes or court litigation.
I further agree that my name may be placed on a public list of “Mediate First” Pledgees supporting the use of mediation to resolve disputes.
