There are times when two parties to a case prefer to have a neutral mediator or arbitrator help them come to an amicable agreement. There are many reasons to do so and most of these revolve around costs and the nature of the case. When you are looking for a neutral arbiter or mediator for your case, Carcich O’Shea is exactly what you need. We have years of experience mediating in a wide variety of cases. All through, you can expect professionalism, confidentiality, and candor from us.
Many people often choose to have their cases resolved through mediation. Examples of workplace cases that could be resolved through negotiation include wage disputes and much more. Taking the path of mediation and arbitration makes a lot of sense when the parties want to keep details of their case confidential or if the issues at hand do not necessitate a court process. Typically, an attorney will guide the parties on how the process will go. Apart from a neutral arbiter, the parties involved also can be represented by their attorneys during the negotiation.
Getting an attorney to mediate a dispute is important as it increases the chances of a mutually agreeable solution being arrived at. An experienced attorney is also likely to make the process shorter as many of the issues that workplace conflicts revolve around are basically the same. Your mediator or arbiter can quickly identify trouble areas and ensure that the parties cover those as part of the negotiation process. This way, clients save money as shorter legal processes generally tend to be cheaper than long-drawn processes.
In any typical workplace, there are conflicts that are particularly suited for mediation or arbitration. If the differences between the two parties concerned are not that significant, mediation or arbitration can help bridge the difference. This form of conflict resolution also works well when parties involved wish to keep details of the dispute as confidential as possible.
When it comes to mediation, there is a neutral mediator who helps to guide the negotiation process. Through this approach, the parties involved negotiate their way to an acceptable agreement. Arbitration, on the other hand, involves having a neutral party listen to the facts of the case from both sides and make an independent decision.
The easiest way to know what is best for you is to have a lawyer review the facts of the case and advise you accordingly. Of course, both parties must agree to this approach for it to work. Getting the right mediator or arbiter for your case has a significant effect on the resolution that will be arrived at.
Yes, this is possible. You can brief your lawyer to sit in for you during the negotiation in order to ensure that your interests are taken care of.
The various parties to the dispute will often share the fees charged by the mediator or arbiter. This, however, does not include the fees of the individual attorney representing the parties during the process.

Sheila represented me in two relatively complicated employment litigation matters, both of which resulted in favorable outcomes for me. Sheila impressed me as knowledgeable, accessible, diligent, and exceedingly professional. Her excellent “bedside manner” helped to minimize stress that I know is somewhat inevitable in litigation. I highly recommend Sheila to prospective clients wholeheartedly and without reservation.
I retained the services of Sheila O’Shea-Criscione to represent me against harassment and discrimination in my place of work. She came highly recommended and did not disappoint. Sheila directed me to the right course of action, clearly explaining each step and expected outcome. She was consistently available via phone, email, or text for emotional and professional support. Sheila is an excellent attorney and a warm, kind person. In the midst of a difficult situation, she paved the way to a successful outcome. I am a stronger and more confident person thanks to Sheila!
Sincerely,
Marie Coschigano
After numerous harassment and bullying encounter with my superiors, I was desperate for guidance and help as to what my legal rights were to try and put a stop to this behavior.
I turned to a number of attorneys. After talking on the phone, all declined to take my case. Sheila was the only one who took my call and then invited me to her office to explain my situation, from that first meeting until she resolved the case, she guided and supported me. She was never tired of my phone calls and text messages. There were times when I was on the verge of resigning, but she encouraged me and told me to hang in there and be patient. She was convinced of a positive outcome if we stuck with her “game plan” even when I became skeptical and began to doubt the direction we were going.
If you should ever need legal assistance, I highly recommend Sheila – a great lawyer and a wonderful person.
