In mediation, both sides talk with one or more neutral people - called mediators -who are specially trained to help people resolve their disputes. Mediation may help you get a better result more quickly, more easily, and less expensively than having a judge decide whether to make a restraining order. Everyone works together to reach an agreement, instead of having the judge decide.
