Mediation is fast becoming the preferred way of resolving Commercial and Family disputes. Mediation means both sides of the dispute meet to gain an understanding of each other’s positions, needs, feelings and objectives. The mediator facilitates communication and helps broker a settlement. Mediated agreements are usually achieved much more quickly and more cost effectively than using traditional litigation and the courts.
At Focus Mediation we believe that communication is vital to resolving disputes. Mediation helps to build or rebuild long term relationships extending beyond the dispute, for example within families or companies or between businesses, where commercial relationships reach deadlock.
We have a team of accredited Civil Mediation Council mediators for commercial, civil, employment and other non family disputes, including probate and Inheritance claims.
We have a team of accredited Family Mediators for Family disputes. We also have a franchise from the Legal Services Commission, which means we are able to give Legal Aid to people who qualify financially and have a family dispute.
This site explains what Focus Mediation does and how we can help you or your business with Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) either as an additional tool or a complete alternative to court.
