Mediation is a voluntary and confidential process facilitated by a neutral third party, known as the mediator. Our team of trained mediation experts at Kariuki Muriuki Advocates excels at guiding parties through this collaborative process. Here’s how our mediation services can benefit you:

Neutral Facilitation: Mediators do not take sides or offer legal advice. Instead, they facilitate communication between the parties, ensuring a safe and respectful environment for open dialogue.

Exploration of Interests: Our mediators help participants uncover their underlying interests, which may not be immediately apparent. By understanding these interests, parties can work towards creative solutions that address their real needs.

Conflict Resolution: Mediation allows parties to maintain control over the outcome. With the mediator’s assistance, they can craft customized, mutually acceptable solutions that may not be available through litigation.

Cost-Effective: Mediation typically costs less than going to court, saving parties time and money. It is also a faster process, as it does not involve the lengthy court procedures.

Preservation of Relationships: Mediation is particularly useful when parties wish to preserve their ongoing relationships, such as in family disputes or business partnerships.

Arbitration is another ADR process where a neutral arbitrator, or a panel of arbitrators, is chosen to make a binding decision on a dispute. Kariuki Muriuki Advocates offers comprehensive arbitration services with the following advantages:

Binding Decisions: Unlike mediation, arbitration results in a final and legally binding decision. This can provide a sense of closure to the parties involved.

Expertise: Our arbitration experts are well-versed in various areas of law and have the knowledge to render informed decisions.

Efficiency: Arbitration can be quicker than litigation, as the parties have more control over the process and can often set their own timelines.

Confidentiality: Similar to mediation, arbitration proceedings are confidential, which means the details of the dispute remain private.

Flexibility: Parties can choose their arbitrator(s) and have more control over the arbitration process, including selecting rules and procedures that best suit their needs.
