Using Mediation / Arbitration can Save You a Fortune Print E-mail
Written by MICHAEL HEICKLEN   
During tough times, lawsuits skyrocket: Divorce, small business disputes, defaults on loan payments, fights with neighbors. The problem is, it can take years to get to trial, and cost more than the case is worth. For example, a contested divorce that settles two years after filing, typically costs $30,000 per side in attorneys fees.

    Private Mediation / Arbitration is a great choice when the dispute is real, but litigation makes no sense. A mediator helps negotiate settlement without choosing sides. An arbitrator hears the case and renders a legally binding decision, like a Judge or Jury would.  It's not necessary to hire your own lawyer.  The process is fast, confidential, affordable, and takes place outside of the public courts.

    Michael Heicklen is a Mediator / Arbitrator and California licensed attorney, whos been in sole practice since 1994. In 1997, he was part of a three attorney team that overturned 200 years of forfeiture history at the United States Supreme Court. He also represents clients in contested and uncontested divorces, defends civil litigation actions, and negotiates entertainment transactions.
