Disputes and mediation
Before the courtroom, there is always a possible negotiation.
A commercial dispute, or one between partners, does not have to end in court. In most cases a well-run negotiation reaches an agreement faster, at lower cost, and far more confidentially than the judicial route. We act as a trusted third party or strategic adviser, to create the conditions for an agreement both sides accept.
When we step in
How we work
We separate what each party demands (their position) from what they are actually after (their interests). That analysis opens up room for agreement that is invisible from the trenches of a dispute.
We help you assess your odds objectively should it go to court: costs, delays, uncertainty, media risk. That lets you negotiate with clear eyes rather than with anger.
We create a structured negotiation setting, away from judicial pressure, where the parties can speak without locking themselves into new positions. We are there so the agreement emerges, not to arbitrate.
A verbal agreement is not enough. We help formalise the terms precisely and robustly, so that no ambiguity reopens the dispute six months later.
