Types of Mediation

Mediation resolves all kinds of disputes

Different disputes require different types of mediation. A skilled mediator will match the process to the needs of your individual dispute.

Commercial Dispute Resolution

With financial pressures and your reputation to protect, it's likely you want a quick and decisive end to a commercial dispute. From debt recovery to enforcing a contract, construction disputes to contract law arbitration… mediation is fast, cost-effective and protects your reputation.

I will focus on helping you find a permanent solution quickly and confidentially.

Mediation in the Workplace

Mediation is ideally suited to resolving workplace conflicts. Employers find mediation cheaper and more effective than tribunals. Less disruptive than a tribunal, mediation reduces the negative emotional and motivational impact of a workplace dispute.

The priority is nipping conflict in the bud and finding a fair solution for all parties.

Mediation in the NHS

Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) is helping health authorities and NHS trusts develop a more patient-focused response to health service complaints and clinical negligence claims. The dramatic rise in disputes in recent years has led to significantly increased legal costs.

Mediation is saving the NHS money and freeing-up resources.

Mediation in Education

Mediation's collaborative problem-solving approach is ideal for resolving disputes between schools, LEAs and parents. A mediator will help explore alternative options, improve communication and avoid conflict.

Mediation can ensure children with special educational needs have their requirements met.

Mediation in Local Government

Local government is increasingly using mediation to resolve disputes in areas such as planning decisions, enforcement and environmental issues. Mediation can ease differences, control disputes and quickly resolve issues that are often politically sensitive and highly charged.

Above all, mediation is cost-effective and delivers more acceptable solutions to those involved.
