Costs Mediation
What our barristers do
Costs mediation is one facet of alternative dispute resolution (ADR). It is conducted by an independent third party, who will be one of our barristers and an accredited mediator. Our barristers are independent of the parties. The barrister’s function is to try to bring the parties together so that a settlement or compromise may be achieved. It is a confidential process, which can usually be arranged to take place within a reasonably short timescale.
Who our barristers act for
We act for the participants as well as in the role of mediator (or arbitrator). We act for litigation funders, insurers, legal professionals, corporates and individuals internationally and domestically. As mediators (or arbitrators), we are repeatedly trusted by all participants to achieve a workable solution with impartiality and fairness.
Where our barristers act
Location and jurisdiction are no bar to costs mediation. Our barristers are ever-ready to travel domestically and internationally if required and also to work remotely as might suit the participants. We are committed to paperless work and have the infrastructure and support in-house to offer a smooth and seamless service.
