In Mediation, the mediator helps the involved parties reach a settlement by assisting with communications, obtaining relevant information, and develop options that benefit both parties fairly. In Arbitration, the arbitrator hears the evidence brought forth by the parties involved and will issue a legally-binding resolution based on similar trial results.

What is Mediation?
By definition, Mediation is a form of alternative dispute resolution in which the parties to a lawsuit meet with a neutral third-party (mediator) in an effort to settle the case.
Mediators are not responsible for issuing orders, finding fault, or making determinations. The job of a mediator is to help the involved parties to reach an agreement by assisting with communications, obtaining relevant information, and providing settlement options that are agreeable by both parties.
Typically the mediator will meet with both parties in a collaborative effort to gather informal explanations of their views of the dispute. Following the meeting of both parties at once, the mediator will then meet with each party individually, exploring possible ways to resolve the issue at hand.
Most disputes are successfully resolved and both parties enter into a written settlement agreement, and this process has been generally more favorable than arbitration.
What is Arbitration?
By definition, Arbitration is a legal technique used for resolving disputes outside of court wherein the parties to a dispute refer it to one or more persons (arbitrators) whose decision they agree to is to be bound.
Arbitration is more formal than Mediation. The arbitrator could be a retired judge, senior lawyer, an accountant or some other form of specific professional. Both parties are provided an opportunity to present their case to the arbitrator. Respective lawyers are able to question witnesses from both sides.
There are little to no out-of-court negotiations between parties. The arbitrator has the power to make any decision legally binding which both parties must honor. The agreement is then enforced in court.

"Mary and Mr. Erney were very helpful in my case. I didn't have to call and remind them of anything. I heard from them often and never had to reach out for an update. What I loved most was that they recognized who I was every time I stopped by. I didn't feel like just another client like most places make you feel. They were both very professional. I felt comfortable and trusted their advice every step of the way. I will definitely use Mary and Mr. Erney again in the future!"

"Back in Late 2018, I was T-Boned by a Mail Van that went speeding through a stop sign. I wasn't able to fully use my right hand for almost 5 months and this was the first time I had even taken on legal representation. She was very transparent through the entire process and kept me up to date as things progressed with my suit."

She took time to get to know me and my situation and she put her all into my case. She walked me through every step of the process and she was very patient with me and willing to explain any and everything. I could go on and on about the amazing experience I had working with Mary Erney and Erney law.

"Rob and Mary are the best in Columbus. They are very kind and compassionate and will do everything in their power to get you what you deserve. They took the time to come meet with me on multiple occasions when I was in a care facility. They answered all of my questions and explained the processes. I felt completely in the know the entire time. They offered to represent me in court and fought for me with insurance companies with great success.
