Relational Dispute Resolution

Want your concerns, interests and values to be heard and thoughtfully considered in a dispute? 

At RDR, we help you navigate the choppy waters of everyday difference in your personal or professional life. Dispute resolution is the umbrella term for methods to help people address conflict/dispute. At RDR, we approach a conflict/dispute as a ‘difference’. We believe that the use of the term conflict/dispute unnecessarily sets people on a confrontational path. At RDR, we support you to effectively communicate your interests and values, while thoughtfully taking others’ interests/values into account. The goal is for all parties to be heard and understood in order to reach a mutually agreeable resolution to their matter.

  

What happens when we are focused on making sure the other hears our complaint? We generally stop listening to the other, anxiously waiting for an opening, repeating ourselves in case we were not heard earlier in the conversation.

The source of most conflicts/differences is communication. 

Whether you are navigating relational differences in: 

  • Custody/Co-Parenting
  • Separation/Divorce 
  • Workplace
  • Community

RDR’s practice can be tailored to meet your needs. Unlike judges, lawyers, arbitrators and most mediators, at RDR your mediator will be focused almost exclusively on your matter for the duration of the process.
