Soden & Steinberger APLC, Attorneys At Law

The mission of Bridge Mediation is to educate corporate business leaders about mediation as an alternative to traditional dispute resolution methods, and to facilitate dialogue. We provide a pathway of resources between countries and companies that will enable innovative international business dispute resolutions. Our purpose is to let our clients understand that they have a possibility to resolve their disputes without recurring to the standard resolutions and that an agreement is possible anytime the parties can bridge the gap between their cultural differences. Bridge Mediation helps its clients to understand cultural and linguistic diversities, as they normally are key issues in international business ventures. In addition, Bridge Mediation professionals are trained in both common and civil law systems, and can facilitate connections between the two systems. We approach every new target country by associating to the team a new member from that country, in order to get through the culture and business practices of the selected area. Our experience shows that "win-win" resolutions are possible to any conflict so long as the involved parties bridge the gap between perceived cultural and linguistic differences. Through mediation and cross-cultural negotiation techniques, our clients save time and money. The Bridge Mediation team is composed of business professionals from all over the world, with extensive knowledge and experience in mediation, international law, international relations, education, corporate business, and cross-cultural communication and negotiation. Using our expertise, we help companies and individuals throughout the world to resolve disputes and difficulties. In 2006 and 2007 Bridge Mediation has been awarded and accolade as a nominee for the Multicultural Hertage awards 2006 and 2007 by the San Diego Business Journal.
