Parties can either use our Case Management System to select a mediator based on availability or can ask CEDR to recommend a mediator.
CEDR can arrange the mediation within 48 hours, or less if pending court action requires it, but we recommend parties give themselves at least a week's notice in which to prepare. The steps to use the service are as follows:
Fixed price mediation provides the services of a CEDR Panel Mediator for a fixed price that covers all pre-mediation preparation and mediation time on the day itself up to a maximum of 7 hours. CEDR will select the mediator on the parties’ behalf or, for a small extra cost, a shortlist of mediators can be provided from which the parties can choose.
