About Us

The Mekling Group is a consulting firm providing ADR services in Florida. 

What is ADR?

Disputes arise everywhere over differences in values, culture, finances and overall communication breakdown. Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) refers to any means of settling disputes outside of the courtroom. 

At the core of ADR are mediation, negotiation and dialogue, in which parties with the assistance of a neutral third party mediator, resolve their impasses bridging divides and moving the conflict toward a mutually acceptable outcome. 

We are neutral parties who can assist with conflict resolution concerns turning conflict into collaboration.

Workplace conflict is inevitable. Employees have various backgrounds, beliefs, experiences, or different working styles. When brought together, anxieties, personality conflicts, political divide or racial discussions may arise causing conflict, low morale, and low productivity. These conflicts can be resolved to regain an amicable and respectful workplace.

In workplace mediations, the parties agree to voluntarily engage in a confidential discussion facilitated by an impartial mediator. The goal is to promote a healthy communication between parties in order to reduce conflict at work. During mediation. the parties are empowered to own their conflict resolution process in a collaborative way and resolve the dispute themselves.

Our workplace mediation program is not a substitute, nor does it replace, any complaint or grievance process.
