How long does the process of mediation take once both parties have agreed to participate?
Once your dispute has been allocated to the mediator, our aim is for the mediation to take place within 30 days. However, this is dependent upon all the parties’ availability.
The length of the joint meeting itself will vary depending on the specific facts of the dispute. The virtual meeting can take up to two hours. This is to allow enough time for each party to communicate their side of the story, and for the mediator to discuss any key points.
