Dispute Resolution
Mediation
Confidential, structured settlement discussions that preserve relationships and control cost.
Overview
How we approach mediation
Mediation gives parties control of the outcome rather than delegating it to a judge. Preparation matters more than advocacy: the offer strategy is set before the day begins.
We prepare position statements, attend as your representative and draft the settlement agreement on the day.
Common situations
- Commercial disputes where a relationship must survive
- Family financial settlements
- Workplace and partnership disagreements
- Inheritance and beneficiary disputes
- Construction and property disagreements
Our Process
Four stages, agreed in advance
A consistent structure applied to every matter in this fictional practice.
01
Initial consultation
A structured first conversation where we map out your mediation position, the outcome you want and the realistic routes to get there.
02
Scope and cost agreement
You receive a written plan setting out the work, who will carry it out and a transparent fee structure before anything begins.
03
Strategy and progress
Your named solicitor progresses the matter, negotiates on your behalf and updates you in plain English at every meaningful stage.
04
Resolution and aftercare
We conclude the matter, hand over a clear record of what was agreed and set out anything you should review in the future.
