- Mediators do not become disqualified from acting (even by perception) because of previous direct or frequent instructions from one party or solicitor;
- Our experienced case managers can help smooth out pre-mediation communications between representatives in highly charged or multi-party disputes;
- Clients and their solicitors can concentrate on the case while we sort out all the administration and logistics.
