Although Dr. Berrier specializes in Health Care, mediation is a positive tool to provide conflict resolution for many areas of concern, such as: Family/Divorce, Employment, Landlord/Tenant, Health Care, Consumer, Business, and Church/Member to name a few. Dr. Berrier will assist you in determining what is approriate for Mediation or Arbitration.
Arbitration is an "out of court" mechanism through which conflict is resolved by the Arbitrator. The Arbitrator will listen to testimony, review evidence and make an "award" or decision based upon the information provided. Unlike mediation, the participants agree in advance to abide by the decision of the Arbitrator.
Dr. Berrier uses the "Conference Style" for Mediation which brings disputing parties together and he assists them in finding common ground on which an understanding and possible reconciliation can be reached. Often mediation can help resolve differences in one to two hour sessions or a series of shorter sessions over a period of time. Shorter sessions are useful when participants work, or the issue is highly charged with emotion.
Service fees are based on an hourly or half day basis. A sliding scale is also available.
