What is Civil Mediation?

Civil mediation is a voluntary process where an impartial mediator helps two or more parties involved in a dispute reach a mutually agreeable solution. It’s confidential, flexible, and focused on collaboration rather than conflict.

Mediation is suitable for a wide range of civil and commercial disputes, including:

  • Neighbour or boundary disagreements

  • Landlord and tenant issues

  • Property damage or repair claims

  • Small business or contractual disputes

  • Workplace disagreements not covered by HR procedures

  • Professional service complaints

  • Consumer and service-related matters

Why Choose Mediation?

Legal battles can be expensive, time-consuming, and emotionally draining. Civil mediation offers a better way forward:

  • Save Time – Avoid the backlog and delays of court processes

  • Save Money – Far more cost-effective than litigation

  • Stay in Control – You decide the outcome, not a judge

  • Preserve Relationships – Reduce hostility and encourage mutual understanding

  • Confidential and Neutral – Nothing shared in mediation can be used in court if it doesn’t settle

How the Process Works

  1. Initial Contact – Get in touch to discuss your situation in confidence

  2. Agreement to Mediate – All parties must agree to take part voluntarily

  3. Session Scheduled – We arrange a convenient date and format (in-person or online)

  4. The Mediation Session – Lasts a few hours and can be joint or separate (shuttle mediation)

  5. Reaching Agreement – If successful, we record the outcome in a written agreement

 

Most civil disputes are resolved in just one session.

  2. Individuals dealing with personal disputes
