Barry Mediation Group was created to provide a cost effective alternative to expensive and protracted litigation. Founded by Stephen R. Barry, an experienced litigator, Barry Mediation Group is focused exclusively on case resolution. We believe that all cases can benefit from alternative dispute resolution, and not just high value cases. That is why we set rates that are attractive to negotiated neutral settlement of large and small cases.
We also believe that your case is important. That is why our mediators are litigators who only mediate cases in areas that they have substantial experience. Our efforts are devoted to finding a solution for your case – not just exchanging numbers. We are ready from the moment the mediation begins to sit down start assisting the parties with settlement. We generally contact counsel in advance, at no cost, to discuss the upcoming mediation.
Most importantly, we believe in a friendly, neutral process that is strictly confidential. We enjoy working with individuals, companies, insurers and their counsel so that all viewpoints may be heard and respected. The mediator is neutral and has no interest in the financial outcome of the case. A settled dispute is our only goal. The process is strictly confidential, which is agreed to in writing before the mediation begins.
