Mediation & negotiation

When a dispute arises, you want clarity and stability as quickly as possible. Negotiation and mediation offer an opportunity to resolve the issue without the time, cost and uncertainty of formal proceedings. They also allow you to retain greater control over the outcome.

By focusing on underlying interests rather than rigid positions, you increase the likelihood of reaching a sustainable agreement. This helps you turn conflict into a practical solution while preserving relationships.

Recognizable situations

Situations you recognize, answers that help you move forward.

An amicable settlement prevents a dispute from escalating into court proceedings. It allows you to retain control over the outcome, save time and reduce costs and public exposure.

To be legally enforceable, the agreement must be drafted clearly and comprehensively, for instance in a settlement agreement or with support from a mediator or lawyer. Proper documentation prevents future disagreements.

Mediation often offers a faster and less confrontational solution than court proceedings. It is particularly useful when you want to preserve a long-term relationship with the other party, for example in business disputes or family conflicts.

A certified mediator guides both parties towards a mutually acceptable agreement. Once properly recorded, the agreement has the same legal value as a court judgment. This helps avoid costs, delays and reputational harm.

Successful negotiation starts with thorough preparation. You must clearly define your objectives, identify possible concessions and determine your boundaries. Understanding the interests and motivations of the other party strengthens your position.

Gather all relevant legal documents and facts to support informed decision-making. Negotiation is not merely about concessions, but about reaching an outcome that is legally sound and commercially workable.
