Mediation is a legal tool and form of alternative dispute resolution (ADR), which is a way of resolving disputes between two or more parties. The third party (mediator) assists both parties to negotiate a workable settlement. Mediation is used in a variety of legal areas including but not limited to: commercial law, business law, estates, employment law and family law.

Mediation is more than a dispute resolution; it can also function as a means of dispute prevention by facilitating the process of contractual negotiations. Governments often use mediation as a powerful tool when creating government policies. With mediation, participation is voluntary and the mediator’s decision is not imposed on the parties, rather he or she offers a solution. The mediator acts as a neutral third party and facilitates the negotiation process.

Due to Ms. Davis’ extensive legal career in the field of business law, she is able to draw from her knowledge and practical experience when working as a mediator during the negotiations process. The Law Office of Patricia M. Davis is located in Houston, Texas. The firm offers a broad range of legal services including mediation.
