Parties in conflicts over payment of bill for car repair, driveway paving, personal loan, car accident, rental deposit are able to work out agreements. Generally these mediations take place after one party has initiated a small claims case. They can happen prior to the court date if the parties contact the DRC to request this service. All contested Small Claims cases in Lower Kittitas County and in Yakima County go through mediation on the initial court date to see if an agreement can be worked out before a trial takes place.
