Common questions

FAQs.

Why lead with mediation rather than court?

Because most commercial disputes settle, and the question is only on whose terms. A properly prepared mediation costs a fraction of litigation and ends with a deal you shaped, not a judgment you risk. Where the other side will only respond to proceedings, that is said plainly in the strategy note.

Do you act in arbitrations under institutional rules?

Yes, and documents only arbitrations, decided entirely on the papers with no hearing, are a core part of the practice: many institutional rules and most trade schemes provide for them. Otherwise, on the written stages: pleadings, evidence and submissions, with specialist counsel instructed for hearings where advocacy rights or the seat require it. One relationship, no relay.

Can you be appointed as mediator?

The practice acts as party representative, which is where the record is. If you need a neutral, you will be pointed to appropriate panels honestly.
