As possible solutions arise, trained Mediators help guide participants toward a resolution of their own making. The process is designed to be a way to easily resolve disputes. When people decide to participate in the program, 80% of cases are resolved.

If you are interested in learning more, or would like to open a case, call or email us. A case manager will talk with you confidentially about your concerns, provide general information, and discuss possible options, including mediation.

About Us

The Alameda County Unincorporated Rental Mediation Services Program is provided by The Center for Community Dispute Settlement (CCDS). CCDS has been providing mediation services to the Tri-Valley communities and the Alameda County Superior Court since 1995. Founded in Livermore, CA, We emerged out of a recognized need for non-adversarial conflict resolution for individuals and organizations. As professional neutrals we provide mediators, trainers, management consultants and neutral facilitators.
