Mountain Mediation Services

Welcome to Mountain Mediation Services!

Mediation is an intervention between conflicting parties to promote reconciliation, settlement or compromise.

Mountain Mediation Services provides a valuable alternative to court to the residents of the seven western-most counties of North Carolina, including the Qualla Bounday. Mediation is used to resolve disputes through discussion in an attempt to reach an agreement which both parties feel is fair.

Our mediators are trained volunteers from the community, and the training they receive is standardized by the Mediation Network of North Carolina. The mediators act as neutral parties; they do not judge, take sides, or give advice. They do help individuals listen to each other and clarify the issues involved.

**We do not accept cases involving felonies, violent crimes, or domestic violence.**
