Without knowing the details of your case it's hard to say. Mediation takes place so the parties can settle their differences, if possible, without having the case drag out in court. You could always see what is being offered and decide to accept or reject the offer. Rejecting the offer means continuing the case in court. Accepting means a stipulation is written up that both parties are expected to abide by. Do you feel like you have a strong case?
