There is no formula for determining the value of a case. Many factors influence values, including:

– The nature and extent of the damages.
– Countless other intangible factors which differ from case to case.

Mediation is a form of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) and aims to assist two or more disputants in reaching an agreement. Whether an agreement results or not, and whether the content of that agreement, the parties themselves determine, rather than accepting something imposed by a third party.
