Mr. Wales’ Approach to Online Mediation
Once you contact Mr. Wales seeking a mediation date, Mr. Wales will reach out to the opposing party in your conflict and assist both parties in scheduling a mutually convenient date and time for the mediation.
When your case has been scheduled, you’ll receive a hearing notice from our case administrator. That notice will contain the following:
- Confirmation of the date and time of your hearing.
- The link that you will click to access your hearing.
- Contact information of one of our designated tech representatives, who will be available at your request for a practice run or for any issues that arise during the hearing.
Mr. Wales encourages the parties to submit pre-mediation briefs outlining their position and settlement demands.
On the date of your hearing, Mr. Wales will admit each participant one by one. Once admitted, each participant is sent to their respective “breakout room.” We follow this procedure to ensure that opposing sides do not cross paths in the “waiting room,” and it also allows us to ensure that no un-invited guests enter the meeting.
The Mediation Fee is due in advance and is typically shared by both parties.

Why Online?
Conducting mediation online, as opposed to in-person, provides the opportunity to extend the benefits of these alternatives to many disputes including, but not limited to, the following:
Disputes between parties who are too geographically distant to enable a meeting to take place;
