DISPUTE RESOLUTION CENTER OF KING COUNTY

Dispute Resolution Center of King County is an organization that provides mediation and conflict resolution services for individuals, businesses, and families. A community mediation center, the DRC uses professional mediators who volunteer their time as volunteers to help it resolve thousands of disputes annually. Mediation fees are kept low by this approach, and they can offer a sliding scale for payment. The DRC offers face-to-face mediation in a facilitative style. As part of mediation services, they also offer proceedings at all four Small Claims Courts in the county, so people can choose to use mediation instead of litigation on the same day they appear in court.
