The mediator will encourage a discussion of the issues and of possible solutions. Time will also be spent evaluating these solutions so that, if an agreement is reached, it will address the interests of the parties. The mediator may offer suggestions and assistance in developing options. However, the final decision is left to the parties.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>How do the parties dress for mediation? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There is no formal dress requirement.
