Mediation Questionnaire – Ohio Court
The Mediation Questionnaire from the Cleveland Municipal Court Housing Division is designed to gather feedback on participants’ experiences with the mediation process. The Mediation Questionnaire aims to assess the neutrality of the mediator, the opportunity for open discussion, the resolution of conflicts, and the overall effectiveness of the mediation program. Participants are asked to respond to several yes/no questions, including whether the mediator remained neutral, if they had the chance to discuss important issues, and if the conflict was resolved or if progress was made in resolving it. Additionally, the Mediation Questionnaire inquires about previous usage of the mediation program and whether participants would recommend it to others. There is also a section for further comments and optional personal information. Responses are confidential and will be reviewed by the Housing Court Mediation Coordinator.
