Characteristics of a Standing Mediator require proactive engagement form the conceptual planning of a project, through the biding process or the negotiations process. This is best fulfilled from the project’s start, not just after a problem escalates. A Standing Mediator Possesses significant knowledge of construction law, project dynamics, and technical aspects (workmanship, change orders). An effective and efficient Standing Mediator is uniquely skilled at creating collaborative, motivated, and enduring relationships aimed at reaching consensus and promoting fair and equitable agreements between the parties by thoroughly understanding and envisioning solutions to the project’s intricacies to better serve them.<\/p>

The three primary duties of a Standing Mediator is to timely recognize potentially latent issues, emerging problems, and to mitigate and avoid any manifested issues or conflicts that might become a dispute. A Standing Construction Mediator works to stop issues from becoming major conflicts by stepping in quickly to offer informed, fair solutions to keep projects moving.<\/p>

\n\u201cTo say that \u2018Art House\u2019 has been helpful to my business would be an understatement. His knowledge of the legal and technical side of sub-contracting has gone a long way toward giving me the insights in the field where my expertise is lacking. His consulting with me in reading and understanding complexities of Florida Lien Laws has given me confidence. We have instituted new policies on how to protect our financial integrity by implementing common sense directives. As a small struggling company, having the services of Mr. House has been a much needed boost.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n \"We were successful in obtaining the commitment for funding shortly after we finalized our work with Mr. House. In this economic climate of 2008, that is almost unheard of. Without his assistance in obtaining the $15 million needed, we would not have been able to proceed.\"<\/p>\n

\n \"Mr. House not only assisted in the entire design\/build effort to make this project successful but he also helped to arrange funding, he negotiated with North Branch Builders to be the Design\/Build firm, he arranged for assistance in selling our old building and moving major equipment from the old structure to our new site. He found a piece of land that was an island \u2013 we filled the site and built on it. If a man by the name of Art House walks up to you with a pencil and a napkin and draws a building for you \u2013 you should start planning to move into it.\"<\/p>\n
