Write an invitation to mediation for a dispute. Details I will supply: other party [OTHER_PARTY], dispute summary [DISPUTE_SUMMARY], mediator options [MEDIATOR_OPTIONS], costs [COSTS], dates available [DATES_AVAILABLE].

Propose mediation as a practical step, suggest how costs might be shared, give dates, and ask for a reply by the date I enter.

Documents that usually matter: a neutral summary of the dispute, local or online mediation services and their fees, dates I can attend, and a suggestion to share costs. Realistic outcomes to ask for: agreement to mediate, a date, and a signed agreement to keep talks confidential if the service uses one. The usual pushback: "Mediation is unnecessary." Answer by saying it is faster and cheaper than other routes and you are willing to attend at their convenience.

Before drafting the letter requesting mediation, question me one at a time, starting with the facts still blank, and write nothing until I say go. Give me the letter along with a short cover note, around 60 words, plus the steps to take for silence or refusal (mediation, then other routes I choose), plus the documents to collect (summary), then a proof-of-delivery tip. Email it as a PDF attachment, and archive a screenshot of the sent folder showing date and time and ask for a reply confirming receipt.

Question me on missing details before you begin and say which lines are weak on evidence. Compose the letter in the first person as myself, not as any legal professional, and claim no professional standing. Name no legal authority you cannot source from my input; stay within [JURISDICTION] and [RELEVANT_LAW_OR_POLICY_IF_KNOWN], and add a line telling me to verify the exact law with a professional or my local consumer agency. Sound reasonable, factual and resolute, with nothing hostile or exaggerated, and set any date from [DEADLINE] and no other. Offer text, not legal advice, so stop short of legal conclusions.
