The Judges in Henderson Justice Court have mandated that parties in all small claims actions must meet with a mediator prior to a hearing.
Mediation is a process that assists disputing parties to resolve their differences confidentially and reach a mutually satisfactory agreement with the help of a trained, neutral third party mediator.
The Neighborhood Justice Center can assist in a variety of disputes, including neighborhood disputes, consumer/merchant disputes, employer/employee disputes, family disputes, landlord/tenant disputes, hospital-doctor/patient disputes, and parent/child disputes.
The NJC was established by the Nevada Legislature in 1991 to provide no-cost information, referral and mediation services to Clark County residents, businesses and organizations.
The NJC has also established innovative specialized mediation programs. These programs include the Victim Offender Reconciliation Program (VORP), Conflict Intervention Team (CIT), Court Mediation Program, and Family & Offender Reconciliation Using Mediation (FORUM) program. Mediation and conflict resolution training and community presentations are also offered.
