The mediator does not define or make a final decision for the parties, but helps them negotiate a creative outcome that meets the needs of everyone involved. Unlike the court process, where one party wins and the other loses, mediation can offer a result that can meet the interests of all the parties. It also allows for a faster and therefore, inexpensive resolution of a conflict. People who have chosen mediation to resolve their dispute usually find the process to be more efficient and less adversarial than litigation. Ron has mediated a wide range of disputes since he first trained as a mediator in 1985, including:
