Lawyer | Mediator | Collection
How can we help you?
Marja is also a mediator listed in the MfN register. She sees mediation not only as alternative manner for solving problems but, in some situations, even as the only correct method for both parties to arrive at the best solution. Especially when the parties will still be dealing with one another later, such as business partners. Mediation is a win-win situation. After all, you yourself are discussing possible solutions with the other party. On top of all this, you are preventing long-term procedures, high costs, and an uncertain outcome.
