Mediator

A mediator can assist parties in working towards a negotiated agreement, giving the parties ultimate control of the decision to settle and the terms of resolution.

Arbitrator

Arbitrators are appointed to decide the outcome of a dispute between two or more parties. The decision is final and binding.

Independent neutral for negotiation or independent chairing

A mediator appointed at the outset of a long project or major business relationship, who will act as the point of contact when communication problems are anticipated or arise.
