Mediated Services

Alistair, as the mediator, will dedicate time to meeting with each party separately in their private rooms, aiming to grasp their perspectives and collaboratively navigate towards a resolution. This process might involve Alistair assuming a devil’s advocate role to scrutinize the strengths and weaknesses of each party’s stance. Additionally, Alistair will facilitate discussions on potential solutions, convey offers between parties, and assist them in comprehending the implications of each proposal.

This is an excellent and practical alternative to a face-to-face mediation using online video conferencing technology, so you don’t have to leave your own home or office. It’s ideal where there are reasons why a face-to-face mediation is unsuitable, such as disability or geographical distance. It’s great for international mediations. It can be used for half or full day mediations. I recommend Zoom, which is free and can be downloaded here.
