The mediator is a neutral intermediary.
The mediator is subject to a legal duty of confidentiality.
Nobody knows your conflict better than you - you are the expert.
Mediation becomes possible when the parties to the conflict voluntarily agree to try it.
The parties to the conflict obtain all the necessary information so that they can find a fair and workable solution.
The clarification aid according to Dr. Thomann is an independent procedure for moderating difficult discussions and for clarifying conflicts. In contrast to mediation, the participation of the other party(ies) is basically not even necessary, but clarification assistance can also be used as an aid to self-clarification and for coaching.
The clarification helper is trained to first promote self-clarification among the participants in the conversation before the parties are then brought into dialogue and solutions are found.
Different hourly rates are charged for the various areas of activity.
The duration of a mediation or clarification depends, of course, very much on the scope and complexity of the subject. So this question cannot be answered in general.
If necessary, legally binding agreements can also be reached within the framework of mediation. This can be discussed in more detail in a free and non-binding initial consultation.
There are conflicts where co-mediation by a mixed-gender pair of mediators can be extremely helpful.
As a rule, this makes no sense because the other party to the conflict becomes suspicious if the mediator reports "on behalf" of the other party to the conflict. The neutrality of the mediator is then often already doubted by one of the parties to the conflict and the mediator then lacks the working basis.
From my side, an initial consultation is usually possible within the next few days.
I am always available for a free and non-binding initial consultation. Just ask me!
