Frequently asked questions
-
What do alternative dispute resolution methods involve?
There are many types of alternative dispute resolution that our dispute resolution team employ, one of which is mediation. Mediation involves an independent mediator working with the parties to resolve a dispute by means of discussion and negotiation. These negotiations are kept strictly confidential and without prejudice so that all parties may speak freely, getting their viewpoints across. This is the least formal method for resolving disputes and, while clients may not get exactly their preferred outcome, a good compromise can often be achieved without the cost and hassle of having to go to court and presenting the case before a judge.
The court is increasingly seeking to all but force parties to mediation after proceedings have been issued.

We have a strong success rate in such disputes.
