- Divorce Mediation
Divorce and domestic issues can be emotional and difficult. Mediation can help you resolve issues using cooperation rather than confrontation. By doing so, you can maintain some control over the emotional impact, cost, and length of the process.
- Restorative Practices
By using Restorative Practices interventions in schools, we aim to resolve escalating student conflict between peers and others, reduce the number of days students might have been suspended, and teach youth more appropriate methods of resolving conflict.
- Parenting Mediation
Regardless of your marital status, you will always be your child's parents. If you can learn to work together, instead of fighting against each other, you will achieve a healthier environment for your child and less stress for yourself.
- Special Education Mediation
The Dispute Resolution Center of West Michigan provides Special Education mediation, facilitations and training at no cost for Ionia, Kent, Lake, Mecosta, Montcalm, Newaygo, and Osceola County schools and residents through Special Education Mediation Services (SEMS).
- Employment Mediation
Many disputes between employees and employers can be addressed through intervention from trained HR specialists. But sometimes the issue is more complicated, and you may think that the attorney is your only next step. Consider using the mediation services of the Dispute Resolution Center of West Michigan.
- Civil Dispute Mediation
Any case that is filed in small claims court or in civil court can be mediated. Mediation services are provided by trained mediators, who help the parties talk to each other and reach agreement on how to resolve their issues.
- Stay Married Mediation
Stay Married Mediation is a unique approach; it does not dwell on the past or involve counseling. A trained mediator, who is neutral, helps couples clarify the issues, look at options for resolution, and make decisions based on their wishes.
- Behavioral Health Mediation
Behavioral health mediation services offer a quick and cost-effective alternative to traditional court settlements. They provide a collaborative environment that helps resolve conflicts while maintaining important relationships.
