CONTRACT DISPUTES Example:
You are working with a major marketing firm which has breached its sales
and marketing contract.
Union workers, employed by your organization, seek compensation benefits
after your store has suddenly closed.
Example: You own a construction company which is in dispute
with various sub-contractors because of the poor quality of work that
has become a risk factor.
Example: The residential remodeling contractor you hired
fails to rectify the situation involving the incorrectly installed duct
system. Therefore, you have refused to pay for the services.
Example: As a Hospital Administrator, you threaten litigation
against the health insurer who has refused to pay for services provided
to its members.
In every business relationship there is the potential for crises to arise
around contractual agreements or daily business operations. This crisis
brings about anger, fear, confusion, vulnerability, defensiveness and
suspicion between all parties. As importantly, the situation often negatively
affects production and often brings work to a standstill in some areas.
If this has or is happening within your company, mediation is your best
remedy.Baltimore Mediation offers individuals, companies and organizations
a wide array of mediation and conflict resolution services that can be
provided on site at your business or in a confidential, comfortable off-site
setting at BMC or other location of your choice. Baltimore Mediation has
extensive experience in contractual disputes and civil litigation whether
between two or multiple parties.
The transformative approach, where the mediator facilitates quality interaction
and exploration of whatever is important to the parties as well as possible
solutions, has been proven to be highly successful in bringing clarity
and understanding to contract disputes, generating creative solutions
and helping to maintain important relationships. Upon request, the BMC
mediator will draft a summary or the terms of agreement for the parties.
To complement face-to-face mediation of contractual disputes, Baltimore
Mediation offers online dispute resolution (ODR). When parties are geographically
distanced, ODR can provide a way to intervene quickly and save costly
travel and time expense. Conversations can be synchronous (threaded) or
asynchronous (real time) or both, and are conducted through a secure,
confidential site with a BMC mediator trained in online dispute resolution.
While ODR may not entirely replace face-toface mediation, it can be a
powerful tool to help parties begin to understand and prioritize the issues
and set an agenda for a face-to-face meeting, maximizing the use of time.
Baltimore Mediation mediators are professionals with
extensive backgrounds in human resources, counseling, finance, law, business,
civil litigation, tax, and construction. BMC mediators are experienced
and specially trained in negotiation, communication and the art of conflict
transformation. They know how to handle difficult situations involving
alleged breaches of contracts between businesses and individuals. BMC
mediators assist with a full understanding of the situation from all sides,
thus empowering participants to make informed decisions and create mutually
acceptable resolutions. For more information contact Baltimore Mediation.
