Independent Mediators is neither another mediation provider nor a mediator panel but operates like a barristers’ chambers. It offers a unique way of making the services of experienced
independent mediators available to clients. The mediators are self-employed and independent, and share a central service to administer all their mediations, offering clients the advantages of:
• A single contact point for all ten mediators, no need to call each mediator separately;
• Instant diary availability and mediation bookings;
• Harmonised referral systems, documentation and fees with complete transparency on all fees and arrangements;
• Availability of first-class cover from other leading mediators if a specified mediator is not available. Independent Mediators is exclusively for nationally recognised leading mediators;
• No separate administration fees are charged;
• The structure ensures maximum convenience and speed with minimum overheads.
Our mediators travel all over the UK and internationally for mediations as well as mediating via video conference. We will also be pleased to provide a spokesperson on any mediation related topics and take part in mediation seminars and lectures, nationally, internationally and online.
