Dispute mediation can be an effective and quick way to resolve personal and commercial disputes. Our team of experts are on hand to assist you to secure the right outcome for you.
Dispute Mediation is a voluntary process in which a neutral third party assists parties in dispute to reach a settlement. The expectation of the courts is however that the parties involved in a dispute will attempt to mediate before taking court action.
Litigation is a costly procedure, both financially and emotionally. Dispute mediation often ensures that a dispute is settled in a cost-efficient manner, but in circumstances where the parties retain control. It can also offer solutions that would not be possible if a judge determined a dispute.
Mediation is a form of assisted negotiation and is suitable for all types of civil and commercial disputes regardless of complexity or value.
