Automated system and method for crowd source-based mediation/litigation management

A semi-automatic conflict resolution management and communication system, comprising:

• means for hosting a mediation and management application on a network cloud;
• means for presenting a digital conflict input interface to at least one of a smart device and computer to a complainant;
• means for receiving information of the complainant's identification data from the complainant, conflict incident data from the complainant, and defendant identification data from the complainant, wherein the input information presents a case for an impending law suit;
• means for receiving at least one of a time period or date from the complainant for automatically e-filing the case into a court's server by the application;
• means for uploading the input information to the one or more cloud-networked servers;
• means for providing notice of the impending law suit to the defendant and at least one of the time period or date of the e-filing, and digitally presenting an option to have the impending law suit mediated through the application,
• if the mediation option is selected by the defendant, then:
• means for inputting response information by the defendant;
• means for uploading the response information into the one or more cloud-networked servers;
• means for presenting a counter-claim option against the complainant;
• means for providing a summary of the uploaded information, wherein mediators can electronically review at least the summary and complete facts of the case;
• means for selecting a case by a mediator;
• and
• means for communication between the mediator and the complainant and between the mediator and the defendant on their respective devices, to facilitate a settlement between parties,
• wherein communication between the complainant and defendant is not permitted through the application.

A semi-automatic conflict resolution management and communication system, comprising:

• a cloud-networked server hosting a mediation and management application;
• a complainant's computerized device running a first device-side interface of the application, wherein information input by the complainant of a potential law suit between the complainant and a defendant and at least one of a desired time period or date to e-file the law suit, is forwarded to the server;
• the defendant's computerized device running a second device-side interface of the application, wherein a notification of the potential law suit, the at least one desired time period or date of the law suit's e-filing, a first response option to proceed with mediation, and a second response option to counter-claim against the complainant is provided to the defendant via the second device-side interface;
• a mediator's computerized device running a third device-side interface of the application, wherein information of the potential law suit, the complainant, and the defendant are viewable via the third device-side interface, and wherein the third device-side interface contains communication windows between the mediator and the complainant and between the mediator and the defendant,
• wherein communication information between parties is forwarded to the server.
