Resolution without Litigation, Inc.

Dispute Resolution

We live in a sea of agreements. Every interaction with another person is based on an agreement. Since most of our agreements are verbal (unwritten), it is no surprise that each party understands their own part and the other party’s part in the agreement differently.

The most important requirement for conflict resolution is that all parties are committed to coming to a solution. The next most important requirement is to believe that it is possible to take care of oneself without harming others and to take care of others without harming oneself. Finally, there must be an agreed procedure for defining the conflict, alleviating the ill feelings caused by the conflict, and developing a plan for future action.

RWL provides tested conflict resolution procedures and a neutral party (a facilitator) to lead the parties to resolution and, at the same time, let the parties learn how to be their own mediators.

Once the conflict is resolved and the grudges and feelings of hostility are given up, a plan of action should be developed to minimize future conflicts. The RWL facilitator will help the parties develop an agreement for a new relationship.

In fact, whether an existing relationship is to continue and thrive or a new relationship is begun, a procedure needs to be in place for resolving inevitable conflicts as the relationship develops.
