Due to the fact that lawsuits are costly and disadvantageous to both parties, the undersigned parties agree to submit to non-binding mediation to resolve any controversy between the parties, including but not limited to claims for professional negligence, personal injury, breach of an express or implied contract, loss of consortium, wrongful death, or any payment disputes. The mediation must be completed before the parties may submit to binding arbitration or other legal process.
THIS AGREEMENT IS A LEGAL DOCUMENT AND ANY QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS ABOUT IT MAY BE DISCUSSED WITH LEGAL COUNSEL OF YOUR CHOICE.
I hereby agree to the dispute resolution procedure described above and its intent to provide administrative expedience. Its provisions have been explained to me and I have been provided the opportunity to ask questions about these provisions prior to my signature below. I understand that before I bring my claim to binding arbitration or other legal process, I must submit to this non-binding mediation.
