Tennessee Association of Professional Mediators

Mediation is a transformative approach to resolving conflicts that emphasizes collaboration and understanding. As a voluntary process, it allows all parties to participate willingly, express their concerns openly, and work toward mutually beneficial solutions. Unlike traditional litigation, mediation is non-adversarial, fostering a cooperative environment that can preserve relationships and build trust. It also offers privacy, enabling participants to address sensitive issues in a confidential setting without fear of public exposure.
