When a dispute occurs and the parties involved are unable to resolve it themselves, the common response is to seek legal advice. This may mean taking the matter to court or some other adversarial forum, where a solicitor or barrister, or both, will represent the parties. After the evidence is heard the arbiter imposes a decision. The whole process can be very expensive, drawn out and stressful.
Alternative dispute resolution processes are, however, available and are often more appropriate. Tim Chadwick, mediator, facilitator and lawyer, uses recognised techniques that can replace litigation and arbitration. The benefits in terms of cost, time and stress avoided can be great. Tim Chadwick provides services in mediation and facilitation — two of the main alternative dispute resolution methods — and also conducts training programs in dispute management skills and techniques.

▲ WHY USE MEDIATION ?
It is fair to say that Application of the interest
based facilitative process of Mediation (which of course includes Facilitation)
to your Corporate/Commercial organisation business disputes, dislocations and
distractions, is the appropriate course for you to pursue. Why? Because history
records it so – e.g:
♣“Let him/her who would move the world first move
him/herself” - (Socrates) -
So take the initiative; ‘first move yourself’ by using
the Mediation process for all your disputes, and you will move the ‘world’.
♣”Do not confuse motion and progress. A rocking horse
keeps moving but does not make progress” - (Alfred A Montapert) –

▲ PREPARATION FOR MEDIATION – Parties/Advisers and Mediators:
The issues of parties that present themselves for resolution must of course firstly be assessed by advisers and their clients as to whether they are appropriate for the mediation process. However, in the final determination whether a matter proceeds to mediation that major responsibility always falls on the Mediator to make the assessment & decision in the interests of the parties, before commencement. A full Intake of each party (and advisers) should always be conducted by the Mediator before any process commences to enable the mediator to fully assess whether or not mediation is appropriate for the issues the parties intend raising and to ensure no party suffers unnecessary detriment through the process.

Email Spamming
|
|
|
I have recieved several phone calls from people who have recieved emails allegedly from me selling various 'enlargement' services and other 'exotic' products.
To date, I have not been able to identify the senders nor ensure they cease sending the material and apologise for any inconvenience that may have been caused to you.
I assure you none of those emails have been created by this office but unfortunately I have no control over them. I shall however continue to endeavour to eradicate them from this site.
