Resolve a employment dispute — without going to court
A job ending badly is stressful and expensive to fight. Elerion helps an employee and an employer work through severance, unpaid wages, or a disputed departure and reach terms both can live with — without a courtroom.
What a mediated outcome looks like
A calmer path to a written agreement
Every dispute is different, so here is a composite showing how a mediation with Elerion typically unfolds — not a real case.
An employee is let go and believes they are owed more notice and a final commission; the company sees it differently and does not want the cost or publicity of a claim. Both would rather resolve it than spend months in a dispute.
Each side explains their position to Elerion in a private room. Elerion keeps the tone even, carries only the offers each side agrees to share, and helps them land on a severance figure and a clean final-pay number. What they both accept becomes a written settlement and release they can each take to their own advisers before signing.
What it costs
The traditional way versus $9 with Elerion
The same disagreement can cost a few dollars or tens of thousands, depending on the path you take.
Employment litigation routinely costs $10,000–$50,000 or more per side and can take a year or longer. A private human mediator typically charges $100–$500 an hour, or roughly $750–$6,000+ for the case.
These are typical estimates, not quotes. Real costs vary widely by dispute, state or country, and the people involved — verify the figures for your own situation.
How Elerion handles it
Built for a employment dispute
Elerion is a single, neutral AI mediator. You use it — you never have to configure it. Here is what that means for a dispute like yours.
- Each party gets a private room, called a caucus — sensitive details stay confidential unless you choose to share them.
- Elerion is neutral and even-handed; it does not favor employer or employee, and it will not give legal advice to either side.
- You negotiate the actual terms — severance, final pay, timing, references — and nothing is binding until both parties sign.
- Money figures in the written agreement come verbatim from the offer both sides formally accepted, so the number cannot drift.
- The drafting engine will not write illegal or coercive terms and will not invent facts to fill a settlement.
- Attorneys are welcome and encouraged — you can have counsel review the agreement before you sign.
Elerion is not a law firm and does not give legal advice. Attorneys are welcome and encouraged, and a signed settlement is a contract — enforceability varies by situation and place, so it is wise to have a lawyer review it before you sign.
Elerion is a neutral mediator, not your lawyer, and it does not give legal advice. Employment law and deadlines vary by state and by the kind of claim, so it is wise to have your own attorney review any severance or release before you sign it.
Common questions
