Mediation
Compromise is preferable to ongoing litigation which costs businesses time, energy and resources. At Mediate Today we have seen the destruction that prolonged legal cases can cause to your business. We offer a full mediation service that will help you reach a compromise when there is conflict with other parties or within your business. In our experience everyone who engages in mediation finds the process preferable to ongoing conflict or litigation. Remember there is no unconditional surrender in mediation.
Why Mediate?
Studies show that over 90% of disputes are settled at the door of the court after a long period of time and an expensive and frustrating legal process. Alternative dispute resolution mechanisms such as mediation, arbitration and assisted negotiation are very effective when they are used to resolve commercial disputes. We know from experience that mediation is an efficient and effective way to resolve difficult business, banking or commercial disputes.
What type of dispute resolution mechanism should you use, Mediation or Arbitration?
Why is mediation our preferred solution?
Evaluative Mediation (where the mediator evaluates and suggests solutions) is our preferred method of solving disputes. We follow the EU Code of Conduct for Mediators and the Model Standards for the Conduct of Mediators 2005 as approved by the US Bar Counsel. We also follow the guidelines of the Mediation Bill 2012. We prefer mediation because it is faster, private and less expensive than litigation. Mediation is confidential and informal and the parties can determine the process and the outcome. It is non-binding until a final agreement is reached and it gives everyone the opportunity to vent their emotions. There are no hard and fast rules so tailored, creative solutions are possible. We believe this approach is most useful and is why to date we have a 98% success rate.
Assisted negotiation
Are you in the middle of a dispute? Do you need advice or assistance?
We can act to offer you assistance as part of our assisted negotiation service either with one or both parties, often as an agent of reality.
Our service can help you if you are having discussions about bank debt, shareholder disputes in a private company or employment law problems. In all cases we can work with you directly or with you and your legal team.

Our Additional Tool - Our Mediators Recommendation
In the event that the parties do not reach agreement at the end of the above process, we generally propose our Mediator's Recommendation to both parties, as to where a settlement can take place with rationale and other persuasive techniques honed in the business world to convince both parties to settle. This Recommendation is not admissible in court should the parties not reach full settlement.
Why Settle or Resolve ?
Business people prefer to manage the risk themselves rather than entrust the risk to the vagaries of judge or jury. Litigation is expensive, takes a considerable length of time, involves a lot of aggravation and negative energy. Mediation protects privacy, better to settle to control your own fate.
Remember
The great bulk of commercial and banking conflicts should be settled rather than litigated or arbitrated. Secondly when successful mediation is over, its over. There is no appeal.
