Remote Mediation
Whilst Simon would usually encourage parties in a mediation to be in the same building for the duration of the process, there are circumstances when this may not be convenient. This does not mean, however, that mediation cannot take place.
Using the online platform Zoom, Simon will lead you through the process as if you were face to face with him and, where appropriate, the other party or parties to the dispute.
Do not hesitate to make contact with Simon to discuss how remote mediation can help you to resolve your dispute.
