FREE MEDIATION IS AVAILABLE FOR RESIDENTIAL LANDLORD AND TENANTS
Mediation is free: Landlord and tenant mediation is provided at no cost to the parties.
Mediation gives the parties control: A trained, neutral mediator helps the parties discuss their
issues and explore options to resolve their dispute. The parties can decide whether to participate in
mediation and whether to settle their case or not. They do not give up any rights by participating in
mediation.
Mediation is confidential: Anything that is discussed in mediation is confidential and cannot be
revealed outside of mediation, including in any eviction case that may be filed.
Mediation is convenient: Mediation takes place remotely, by video or telephone, at a time agreed to
by all the parties.
Mediation must be started before a case is filed, for most cases: For most court locations,
mediation is only available before a case is filed in court (i.e. before a Landlord and Tenant Writ is
issued). Post-filing mediation is only available in a few locations. If an eviction notice has been
served, parties must request mediation immediately.
To request mediation:
Call: 603-271-6418
Email: evictiondiversion@courts.state.nh.us
Important Notice: A request for mediation does not automatically pause a landlord and tenant
case. If you are served with a Landlord and Tenant Writ, you must file an Appearance with the court
which issued the Writ no later than the “return date” listed on the Writ. If you do not, the court may
evict you and/or order you to pay money to the landlord without hearing from you.
