Court Ordered Conferencing

When a matter is contested in court, the court may set a date for a court ordered conference. Conferences provide the parties with an opportunity to discuss and decide the matters in dispute, or ty to resolve the matters before proceeding to a hearing. 

Conciliation

Conciliation is very similar to mediation in that it follows a similar process and is likely a more affordable and efficient process than going to court. The difference with a conciliation is that the conciliator can take an advisory role and provide information on the different pathways the parties may take to reach a settlement.
