You don't have to go to mediation, but if you end up having to go to court to sort out your differences, you normally need to prove you've been to a mediation information and assessment meeting (MIAM). This is an introductory meeting to explain what mediation is and how it might help you.
When a mediation doesn't resolve a case, the impasse will necessitate the case goes to trial to be heard by a judge.If a settlement is offered before trial, it's up to the victim, their family, and at the best advice of their lawyer to either accept the offer of a settlement or proceed with trial.
Settle your dispute using mediation. If your case is not resolved in mediation, you can still have a trial in small claims court. If you choose mediation, an independent person works with you and the other side to find a solution that works for both of you.If you don't settle in mediation, you can still go to court.
If you and the opposing party in a suit reach a settlement agreement in good faith, there is likely very little you can do to get out of the deal.

"Settling a case" means ending a dispute before the end of a trial.Each side has to take time to investigate the facts of the case and research the law surrounding the case. Initial papers are filed with the court months before trial can begin.
The mediator is a facilitator who has no power to render a resolution to the conflict. The parties will fashion the solution as the mediator moves through the process. In many jurisdictions the mediator is an attorney but can not give legal advise while in the role of a mediator.
It is possible to back out of a settlement agreement if both parties consent and it has not been incorporated into a court order. However, the issue arises if the other party does not agree.The settlement agreement can be voided if it was formed through fraud or misrepresentation.
If you don't respond or decline mediation without a good reason, you will usually have to explain why you declined mediation to the judge, if your case subsequently goes to court.
