      What is mediation?
      Mediation is a process whereby people in a dispute or conflict are assisted by a neutral professional to agree a positive way forward, it's confidential and party-centric. It is often a faster and more cost-effective process than litigation and participants tend to keep to their agreed outcomes because they have bought into them.

      Mediation is suitable for most types of disputes and conflict and is often the best way to resolve issues if a longer-term relationship is needed between the participants. In the UK, settlement is reached in nearly 90% of mediation cases.
      How can it help?

      Disagreement, misunderstanding, poor communication, or worse, insults, create a lack of trust. Many people ‘fight or flight’ and become entrenched. Mediation can break that deadlock and build bridges between the participants, preserving and improving relationships in our business and family lives.

      With mediation, the control over the outcome remains with the participants. It is confidential and offers a safe environment which is ideal for sensitive cases and is usually faster and much less expensive than litigation.

      • Property disputes

        We have extensive experience in property-related cases and issues facing those involved with real estate. We find that mediation is suitable for almost all property-related disputes.

      • Wills and probate

        These disputes are often between members of the same family or extended family. They can be very stressful and emotional, perhaps involving issues connected to a painful bereavement.

      • Neighbour disputes

        Neighbour disputes are nearly always worth mediating. They are ideally suited to mediation, not least due to the level of hostility often involved and the tendency for substantial legal costs to be incurred on both sides.

      • Professional negligence

        Liability arising from property transactions, the challenges of property ownership, occupation, development or management can and often does result in conflict.

      • Residential lettings

        Sections 8 and 21 cases, buy-to-let issues, possession, eviction and rent deposits; the landlord and tenant relationship, tend to produce issues ideally suited to mediation.

      • Ownership disputes

        The survival of the relationship can be very important to the parties for the future, mediation can help to prevent it breaking down completely or restore some badly-needed dialogue, especially in family situations.
