Unlawful & Detainers

Avoid Court. Resolve Eviction Disputes Peacefully.

Eviction situations can be stressful for both landlords and tenants. At Mercado Mediation Group, we believe that with honest communication and guided discussion, most disputes can be resolved without going to court. Our Unlawful Detainer Mediation services are designed to help both sides reach fair, practical agreements that save time, money, and emotional strain.

Through mediation, landlords and tenants have the opportunity to explain their concerns in a neutral setting. Whether it’s unpaid rent, property damage, lease violations, or misunderstandings, our process encourages cooperation and helps both parties find solutions that make sense — without the hostility or expense of a legal eviction.

Led by Christopher F. Mercado, M.A. in Dispute Resolution, our sessions focus on communication, fairness, and respect. We aim to help both sides protect their rights while maintaining dignity and civility throughout the process. Mediation often results in creative outcomes that work better than what a court might impose.

Choosing mediation before filing or responding to an unlawful detainer case can prevent long delays, legal fees, and lasting tension. It’s a peaceful path forward that focuses on problem-solving, not punishment.
