There’s more than one way to resolve a dispute.  Traditionally parties have looked to the courts but there are a number of alternatives (known as ADR, or “alternative dispute resolution”) including mediation.

Mediation offers the opportunity for increased control over processes and outcomes, providing resolutions which may not be possible in the courts.  

Our team has the skills and experience to guide you through the mediation process – from advising you on the best time to mediate, to choosing a mediator and conducting the mediation.  We also have a number of accredited mediators who can provide valuable input when preparing for a mediation. We have successfully used mediation for clients across the firm in areas including:

• commercial disputes
• construction and engineering
• insurance and professional negligence
• employment
• planning

Eilidh Wiseman was delighted to have recently contributed a chapter to 'Thinking Differently: Making a Difference Using Mediation'.  The book was released to mark the 10th anniversary of Core Solutions Group.  The chapters were authored by prominent supporters of mediation including international mediator William Ury, Core's own John Sturrock and Jim Mather MSP.  Eilidh wrote about her experiences of mediation, discussing the impact which they have had on her approach to resolving all manner of professional and personal situations.  The book has been enthusiastically commended by reviewers.
