Norwell Mediation Firm Announces Personal Injury Division

Offering a quicker alternative to litigation, Accord Mediation, Inc. has recently announced a new Personal Injury division.

[ClickPress, Thu Oct 19 2006] With offices in Norwell, Mass., Accord Mediation now caters to clients in personal injury disputes by providing professional mediation services as an alternative to litigation.

Mediation streamlines and expedites resolution of personal injury disputes. In a mediation session, the plaintiff, accompanied by his/her lawyer, works towards claim resolution with the defendant (usually an insurance company or large corporation) through a certified mediator. Cases are typically resolved in six hours or less.

Mediation, which is the process of finding a solution to a dispute, claim or other issue through communication facilitated by a certified mediator, is a less costly, quicker alternative to litigation. In addition to personal injury disputes, Accord Mediation caters to clients in insurance, real estate, product liability and divorce disputes.

“Opting to mediate a personal injury case simply makes sense. In very serious personal injury cases, lengthy court proceedings are very upsetting to the injured party and/or family involved. Mediation is different. It is a quieter, quicker proceeding that is significantly less upsetting than litigation,” explained Attorney Roger E. Hughes, Jr., a Certified Mediator and founder of Accord Mediation, Inc.

Creating a niche on the South Shore, Accord Mediation offers clients a much more efficient, rhetoric-free and civilized way to reach a resolution that is agreed upon by both parties. In a mediation session, disputing parties will agree to a settlement and sign appropriate legal documentation at the close of the mediation session.
