My main sectors of expertise are mediating commercial contracts, workplace disputes, aviation, property, construction and family office. I am fully accredited to mediate in the UK, the US, and online, and have considerable experience of international disputes.
Mediation is an excellent way to resolve disputes without the costs of going to court or arbitration or formal management procedures such as grievance or disciplinary processes.

We are holding our ‘Meet the Experts- Part 2’ talk on 4 March 2021 at 6.30pm with Rebecca Attree.
This webinar is designed to introduce key skills, techniques and best practice for online advocacy.
Due to Covid-19 many of the courts and arbitration hearings are now online and are likely to remain so to some degree for the foreseeable future. This has led to a need for practitioners to upskill in online advocacy skills.
Further, mediations are now taking place online and so those representing clients at mediations are needing to embrace new skills as online mediation advocates. It is probable that even after the pandemic online mediations will remain a popular choice for dispute resolution.
During this webinar you will gain an overview of the key issues to consider to be an effective and persuasive online advocate.
This will enhance your ability to:
- Prepare for an online hearing or mediation
- Prepare your client or witness for an online hearing or mediation
- Have an effective on- screen presence
- Communicate effectively online; and
- Work with others in your team remotely.
There will be plenty of opportunity to discuss and have your questions answered by the expert trainer.
