Why mediate? What advantages does mediation offer over a simple joint settlement meeting?

The advantages of Mediation are:

Mediators can contribute to the process of a negotiation.

Our clients are often greatly assisted in that process by the presence of an independent accredited mediator.

All our Mediators are able to offer evaluative mediation if required, when mediating disputes within their particular specialist fields. Our mediator will form their own views of the strengths and weaknesses of each party’s case, and of the parameters of a reasonable compromise. Where appropriate, and without taking sides, our mediator will privately share those views with any party involved whose expectations for the mediation seem unrealistic.

Mediation can offer workplace mediation (where our mediators can help to restore working relationships before they break down and result in costly litigation), and also mediation in cases which have progressed to Court or Tribunal proceedings.
