Mediation Services - Helping you resolve disagreements among staff

This service is aimed at companies who find themselves in a situation where a disagreement has arisen between two or more parties within the organisation. This could be a formal grievance or it could simply be employees who don’t get on. Resolving such matters in a tribunal or court is costly and can be damaging to the business. Using mediation is often a quicker, cheaper and more constructive solution.

Our mediation expert, Arran Elkeles (see our About Us page), describes it best;

"Mediation is a form of alternative dispute resolution. The mediator is an independent, neutral person who helps parties to a dispute resolve it themselves without recourse to a court or tribunal. Mediation is confidential and without prejudice. This means that the parties can speak freely without worrying that what they say will go outside the mediation and be quoted in court. Most mediations take no more than a day. The success rate for mediation is about 80%."
