Mediation

Our mediators bring to the mediation process the skills which they have honed in their legal practices, including thorough preparation and objective risk analysis, commercial awareness and in-depth knowledge of chancery and commercial litigation.

The disputes they mediate reflect the wide range of practice areas at Serle Court, including company law, contractual disputes, charities, employment, private client trusts and probate, banking and financial services, regulation, competition, intellectual property, private international law, fraud, partnership and property.  Our mediators have been directory ranked in many of these areas, and they are familiar with the legal and practical issues that arise.

Serle Court mediators have mediated disputes across several jurisdictions and often mediate in multi-party disputes.  A number of mediators are also happy to act as co-mediators in difficult multi-party negotiations. Many have become practised at conducting online mediation.

  • Have a detailed knowledge of our Mediators’ practices which means they can recommend the best mediators for the parties and their dispute;
