Resolve Disputes with Ease

If you are in Western Australia in a strata complex and need to get an issue addressed,

you would make an application to the Stata Administrative Tribunal (SAT) Which hears strata matters.

The SAT will always try to steer both parties into a mediation session.

Why, because well over 70% of the time the issue is resolved through mediation.

If you are applying to SAT it is very prudent to get an understanding of mediation and how it works.

There is a process and psychology to mediation that makes it so effective in resolving disputes.

You can put yourself in the best possible position by knowing beforehand how mediation works and how you put that knowledge to good use in the actual mediation to get the best outcome.

We specialize in resolving conflicts associated with strata property, ownership, tenancy, and management.

We offer a specialized mediation service designed to address issues that often occur in strata providing a timely alternative to the stress and financial burden of legal avenues.

Our qualified mediators possess extensive industry experience, employing the NMAS mediation technique to facilitate constructive communication between parties. Unresolved disputes within strata buildings can become protracted and disruptive for all parties involved.

Our expertise is invaluable in dispute resolution, allowing everyone to return to their daily lives.

We offer a personalised meeting facilitation option.

If your council of owners is facing a challenging face-to-face meeting with lot owners or tenants to resolve an issue, our mediation services can help. We provide a neutral third party to facilitate these meetings, ensuring that discussions remain balanced, respectful, and productive.

By having a professional mediator present, we can help ease tensions, foster effective communication, and guide the conversation towards a mutually acceptable resolution.

This can make the dispute resolution process less intimidating and more efficient for everyone involved.

Advantages of Mediation:

Mediation is not just a resolution process; it’s an opportunity for growth and understanding among parties.

By choosing mediation, you pave the way for constructive dialogue and long-term harmony.

Let us help you navigate your disputes efficiently and effectively, so you can focus on what truly matters.

• Cost-Effective: Mediation is generally less expensive than legal
  proceedings. Legal processes usually involve expensive fees, court costs,
  and other expenses that can add up quickly.
• Time-Saving: Legal proceedings can take months or years to resolve,
  while mediation takes a fraction of the time.
• Confidentiality: Mediation is a private process, and the details of the
  dispute and its resolution remain confidential. In contrast, court proceedings
  are on public record.
• Control Over Outcome: In mediation, the parties involved have more
  control over the outcome. They work together to reach a mutually agreeable resolution.
  In a court case, the decision is in the hands of the tribunal or court.
• Preservation of Relationships: Mediation can help preserve relationships
  as it encourages cooperative problem-solving and communication. People
  have to be able to live in the same environment after a dispute. Legal
  proceedings can be adversarial and can strain relationships further.
• Flexibility: Mediation is a more flexible process. The parties can tailor the process to their needs, and solutions can be creative and comprehensive, covering all aspects of the dispute.
