Understanding Conciliation
Conciliation is a voluntary process where parties work to reach an amicable settlement with the assistance of a conciliator who takes a more active role than a mediator in proposing solutions. We bring this established process to a virtual environment through straightforward video conferencing, making it accessible to all parties regardless of location.
