Mediation is a voluntary process where a neutral third party (the mediator) helps disputing parties communicate effectively to reach a mutually agreeable solution. Unlike litigation, mediation is informal, confidential, and allows the parties to maintain control over the outcome.

Our mediator will facilitate discussions, ensure all voices are heard, and guide you towards a resolution that works for everyone involved.

We specialise in mediating a wide range of civil and commercial and workplace disputes, including; co-founder and shareholder disagreements, employee conflicts, contract disputes, supplier disputes, intellectual property issues, and investor relations.

If you’re facing a challenge within your start-up or established business, mediation can help resolve it efficiently and effectively, letting you get back to what matters most, running and growing your business.

Mediation is faster, less expensive, and less adversarial than litigation. It helps preserve business relationships and provides a private forum to address sensitive issues.

For start-ups, where speed and collaboration are crucial, mediation offers a practical solution that avoids the lengthy and costly legal battles associated with court proceedings.

The process begins with an initial consultation, which is free, where we discuss your issues confidentially. If you decide to proceed, we’ll schedule mediation sessions, usually lasting half to a full day.

During these sessions, the mediator will facilitate discussions and assist both parties to explore potential solutions. Most mediations are resolved in one session.

Yes, confidentiality is the cornerstone of mediation. All discussions during mediation sessions are private, and the mediator is bound by confidentiality. This means that what’s said in mediation cannot be repeated outside of the room, allowing parties to speak freely and openly.

The discussions are also without prejudice, meaning they cannot be used against either party in any proceedings.

Your mediator will be a seasoned professional with extensive experience in both corporate and start-up environments. They understand the unique challenges faced by business leaders and entrepreneurs and are skilled in guiding complex disputes to resolution.

We offer competitive pricing. We’ll be happy to provide a quote after discussing the details of your mediation needs with you. The fee we quote will cover all the mediator’s services, with no additional booking or administrative charges.

The cost varies depending on the complexity and duration of the mediation, but it is significantly more cost-effective than litigation. It can start from as little as £850 per party.

We provide a clear quote after the initial consultation, so you know exactly what to expect.

The length of the mediation process depends on the complexity of the dispute and the willingness of the parties to negotiate.

However, most disputes can be resolved within 1 session, last half to a full day. This is significantly faster than the months or even years that litigation can take.

If an agreement isn’t reached, you’re not obligated to settle and can pursue other options, such as litigation. However, if both parties approach the process with every intention of finding a mutual resolution, then it’s likely one will be found.  This is because the process encourages open communication and creative problem-solving.

Even if no agreement is reached, mediation often helps clarify issues and narrow the focus for future negotiations or legal proceedings.
