Plattsburgh, NY asked in Arbitration / Mediation Law, Consumer Law and Small Claims for California

Q: getting Mediation going in circles.

i submitted case DR23-11933 and DR23-11464 to the L.A. County department of consumer affairs and they tried to reach the business in question for mediation.

The company I'd like to mediate with is

square enix. 999 N. Pacific Coast Highway, 3rd Floor, El Segundo, CA 90245, U. S. A. Phone: +1-310-846-0400

however, in them trying to contact square enix... square enix told them that i'd have to sue them. to get mediation because they didn't have ANY IDEA where the heck the mediation request was to be forwarded to.

i was then told to use the same complaint form to make a mediation request against their AGENTS.

1505 Corporation CSC - LAWYERS INCORPORATING SERVICE 2710 GATEWAY OAKS DRIVE, SACRAMENTO, CA

this of course didn't work because their automatic form showed that the business wasn't in LA county.

now where do i go?

A: If you can identify the corporate officers, you can send them a letter with your request. You are unlikely to get anywhere with a mediation without litigation, but it doesn't hurt to try, as long as your statute of limitations isn't at risk.

A: As a mediator arbitrator myself I always find it rather difficult to get the individuals to the table so that we can work things out letters don't always seem to cut the mustard therefore I enjoy trying to call the parties so the mediation can have an opportunity to work.

These your situation I wish I had more information so that I could give you a better fix on what might help in your matter.

There are several private mediator arbitrators available should you seek one out on your own such as myself.

But since you're seeking Direction calling the State Bar or by going to mediate.com.

I hope this gave you some more directions and hope you to find fast resolution to your situation thank you for allowing me the opportunity to help you in this matter.

A: One option could be to ask them if the information on hand for their agents could be outdated, and if there is more current information available. Good luck
