Alternative dispute resolution

When the business relationship needs to survive, or confidentiality comes first.

A contract and a fountain pen, ready for signature

Not every dispute belongs in court. Mediation, conciliation, collaborative procedure, settlement: which route to take depends on the client’s goals, the timetable, how much confidentiality matters and the relationship at stake.

We lead pre-action negotiations, represent clients in mediation and draft settlement agreements. Negotiation only works if the litigation position is strong, so we prepare the case in parallel, each strengthening the other.
