Mediation
York Chambers is pleased to offer the services of seven CEDR Accredited Mediators.
Covering the full range of Chambers' areas of practice, Mediators can act as independent third parties who will attempt to assist the parties to a dispute to resolve it without recourse to litigation or to settle litigation already underway.
The great advantage of mediation is that no party can be compelled to agree but, once agreement is reached, it is contractually binding and effective to compromise litigation. Apart from significant cost savings, mediation offers the prospect of a solution acceptable to both parties whereas litigation often results in neither party being entirely happy with the outcome and may result in long-term damage to commercial relationships.
Members of the team are always happy to provide advice and guidance on the process of mediation. Our dedicated clerk is able to assist on venues and costs.
Members of the team are:

Nicholas Price
