Community Mediation can assist with conflicts that arise in neighborhoods and between landlords and tenants:
• Rental property or landlord/tenant issues
• Roommate disagreements
• Neighbor conflicts involving noise, pets, and other disputes
Our community mediators are specially trained to provide an environment for each party to discuss their point of view and will keep the conversation on track respectfully. They assist parties to identify all the issues and brainstorm potential solutions. If an agreement is reached, they write it up and send it to the parties, who may have it reviewed by legal counsel before signing if desired. Please contact our office for more information if you think mediation might be the answer you’ve been looking for in your housing or neighbor struggle.
With thanks to the City of Charlottesville we are able to provide free or low-cost mediations for residents of Charlottesville and Albemarle County, including mediation to help avert eviction.
