A better way to resolve disputes
Instead of going to court, we help you resolve disputes through discussion first (mediation), and if that doesn't work, through a binding decision (arbitration).
We start with discussion
First, we facilitate conversations to help you find common ground and reach agreement.
If discussion doesn't work
If you can't agree through mediation, an arbitrator makes a binding decision that resolves the dispute.
Private and faster than court
The whole process is confidential and typically much faster and cheaper than going to court.

A real alternative, not a soft one
Med-Arb is only worth choosing when the private route genuinely beats the court route, and you can only judge that if someone shows you both. We do both. And the protections you get are set down in legislation rather than in our terms of business.
We run the court cases too
We take contentious files through the courts as well as through Med-Arb — personal injury, personal and commercial disputes. So when we tell you what an agreement on the table is worth, it is measured against what litigating would realistically cost and how long it would take, not against a house preference for settling.
Confidential and binding, by statute
Section 10 of the Mediation Act 2017 makes communications, records and notes relating to a mediation confidential and not disclosable in court proceedings, subject to narrow exceptions such as enforcing the settlement itself. Section 23 of the Arbitration Act 2010 makes an arbitral award binding on the parties and, with leave of the High Court, enforceable in the same manner as a judgment of that court.
