Has anyone got experience of using mediation service after filing MCOL for rent arrears ? Do I need to submit any evidence ? Does the mediator has power to make decision ? I will have mediation appointment in a couple of weeks. Any advice will be much appreciated. thanks
The mediator does not make a decision. They will speak to you & the other party separately, and see if it is possible for you both to agree a settlement. The mediator will go back & forth a few times, and if you both agree a settlement, it is binding.
If you can’t agreed, then the case would go to a judge for a normal hearing.
