Mediation Services

A Mediator must understand and be able to manage both the legal issues and the practical or personal implications that arise when parties seek to settle their lawsuit. In doing so, a Mediator must bring to the table a sound knowledge of the law, effective communication and facilitation skills, and an ability to generate options for settlement that will enable the parties to achieve a productive resolution of their dispute.

Peter Chauvin possesses those skills. Peter practiced as an employment lawyer for 19 years. In 2004 Peter was appointed as a Vice-Chair of the Ontario Labour Relations Board. At that time he also commenced his practice as a private Mediator and Arbitrator.

Peter has proven and effective mediation skills. Peter understands the interests of employees and employers. In view of this, Peter is able to resolve complex employment law disputes in an efficient, effective and productive manner.
