Mediation Experience ...
Tony Canham was formally trained as a Mediator in 1988 in Hong Kong by Professor Eric Green, of Endispute Boston USA and Henry Brown, co-author of the standard work on ADR, ADR Principles and Practice, Brown and Marriott. He has extensive experience in the training and accreditation of mediators.
His largest mediation was a dispute that arose in respect of a design and build major work package in a retail and office development over a major railway station in London. The issues involved asserted contract determination by both parties following difficulties with the design and construction contract. The aggregate of the claims of the parties was some £110 million.
Other mediations have included construction disputes ranging from work practice between a British Protectorate and the Labour Union, Court related professional services disputes and Employer/consultant design of underpinning works.
