Mediation is a process in which a neutral facilitates settlement discussions between parties. The neutral has no authority to make a decision or impose a settlement upon the parties. The neutral attempts to focus the attention of the parties upon their needs and interests rather than upon rights and positions.

Mediation is non-binding, meaning any verbal agreements reached during mediation will not become binding until the parties sign a written agreement memorializing such agreements. To encourage open and honest conversations, Georgia makes mediation confidential.
