At Blue Sky Mediation Center, our experienced construction mediator in San Diego & Encinitas, California believes in providing space between the disputing parties to allow them to speak freely and in confidence about all of the facts and circumstances that lead to the situation at hand. Our offices provide a safe space for our constructive problem-solving approach to reaching resolutions expeditiously.
We are here to facilitate solutions through proficiency, skill, and experience in the mediation process, as well as in the construction industry.
We provide a comfortable space that encourages confidential discussions with the individual parties — no matter how many are involved in the dispute — to develop a proactive and productive approach to achieving a settlement by assisting the parties through their respective evaluations, the critical facts of the dispute, and all of the legal issues that are involved.
Our skilled San Diego County construction mediator, Robert P. Mougin, has achieved settlements in complex construction disputes involving multiple parties before leaving our offices, so they can resume their business efforts without delay.
At Blue Sky Mediation Center, our Encinitas construction mediator understands that no matter the project, each party’s involvement, or the origin of the dispute, the number of moving parts within the disagreement may appear overwhelming to any one participant.
We will listen and answer each party’s questions separately and explain each party’s role in the mediation process, so separately — and combined — we can design customized solutions that end in full and final resolutions that allow each party to put these challenges behind them without continuing down the long and expensive path of litigation.

Construction mediation is designed to remove the emotional component from the negotiations, so each party can approach the proper resolution objectively.
That process begins with understanding the benefits of resolving their dispute through mediation, which effectively allows each party to avoid decisions being handed down by a judge.
Our experienced construction mediator in Encinitas, California outlines the benefits of conflict resolution at the start of each session, so each party knows what is at stake if they fail to reach a solution.
The excelling benefit of construction mediation is that the parties avoid litigation, which allows them to avoid the stress, anxiety, and uncertainty of continuing down the uncertain road of litigation.
Additional construction mediation benefits include:
More control over the process and the agreed-upon outcome
Complete confidentiality
Reaching an agreement quickly, usually within one or two days
Considerably less costly than litigation
Construction mediation can be scheduled as soon as the parties are ready, which is important when the process takes place while a project is still under construction because the resolution of disputes clears the way for more cooperation between the project participants.
This also allows commercial relationships to be maintained during and after the dispute by reaching an agreement that incorporates a flexible approach to the final resolution.
At Blue Sky Mediation Center, our skilled Encinitas mediator will provide the framework for your dispute resolution by focusing on the big picture using a logical sequence for discussions that focus on an efficient and expeditious resolution of the dispute.
