Commercial Mediation
At Dawson Hart, we believe that there are many different ways to deal with a dispute and mediation is an option that works in many cases.
Mediation provides a cheaper and more flexible approach to resolving commercial disputes. The process is not embroiled in a legal framework and is therefore controlled by the parties who have complete say in how their dispute is resolved and upon what terms.
With our first-hand experience we are able to provide practical advice on: -
- The appointment of a mediator and the process in operation
- If the need arises we can assist in the enforcement of the decision
We can also provide facilities for the day.
The advantages of mediation are: -
- Speed
- Confidentiality
- Flexibility
- Cost

Glossary
Using an independent third party to settle disputes without going to court. The third party acting as arbitrator must be agreed by both sides. Contracts often include arbitration clauses nominating an arbitrator in advance.
Failure by one party to a contract to uphold their part of the deal. A breach of contract will make the whole contract void and can lead to damages being awarded against the party which is in breach.
An offer to contract must be made with the intention to create, if accepted, a legal relationship. It must be capable of being accepted (not containing any impossible conditions), must also be complete (not requiring more information to define the offer) and not merely advertising.
