Mediate@CumberlandEllis

Our mediators offer active intervention, with proven strategies to help you to reach agreement on disputes without a court or a tribunal. This saves you expense and time, and we can help you craft solutions that work for you.

We offer expertise, reliability and value. These are important to you and important to us.

We have a team of experienced mediators, all of whom are senior qualified solicitors. So you know that we have many years of training and practice in the issues with which you need help. We are used to dealing with problems, and to finding creative proposals for settlement.

Our law firm has been in existence for over 200 years.  We have undertaken mediation for nearly 20 years. We understand that you want to be in control, with our help, of the way that discussions go in mediation, and want to be involved in finding a way through. We know that the documents we draw up for you, when the issues have been agreed, will work for you. They have proved to be effective.

And we offer value. Litigation is expensive and uncertain. The court and tribunal process has a timetable of its own, with processes that often involve documents and drafting of pleadings which you have to pay for whether they advance your own situation or not.

Mediation is seen by many as a fairer process than litigation. It is not right for everybody, and there can be a risk that one party may seek to abuse the process, perhaps to stall matters or to seek to hide a relevant piece of evidence. We are skilled in sorting out such difficulties, and will tell you clearly if and when mediation is not the right way forward.

We provide mediation in several areas:

a) Commercial, construction, property and planning issues.
(Roger Curtis)

b) Separation, divorce, financial and children issues. We offer the mediation assessment that is now compulsory for many couples in children and financial issues, and can go on to provide the full mediation if suitable.
(Hazel Wright, Conrad Adam)

c) Workplace conflict and Employment Tribunal issues.
(Mark Shulman)
