Mediation

From business stand-offs to family financial issues, our expert forensic accountants work alone, or as part of a legal team, to bring commercial disputes to a swift resolution.

Heading the mediation team is Roger Isaacs. Roger is an insolvency practitioner and qualified mediator, accredited by the Centre for Dispute Resolution (CEDR), one of the leading mediation groups in the country.

Why meditation?

Mediation has many advantages when used at the right time. It works best when:

  • There are several parties to the dispute and negotiation by correspondence is difficult
  • Those involved want to preserve a relationship, which litigation is likely to damage
  • Bringing together the principals in the dispute would speed up negotiations
  • A settlement could be based on a commercial non-cash offer
  • The cost of litigation is likely to be prohibitive in relation to the issues at stake

Client testimonials


Both I and my client enjoyed working with Roger Isaacs. He was realistic and pragmatic and very quickly got to grips with the underlying dynamics. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Roger and instructing him in future cases.

Grahame Love Partner at Napthens Solicitors


We engaged Roger to assist with a complex and emotionally charged unfair prejudice petition between shareholders. While the dispute ultimately could not be resolved through mediation,

We have nothing but praise for Roger’s professionalism, skill, and dedication throughout the process. He approached the day with a calm, balanced, and insightful perspective. He was exceptionally well- prepared, quickly grasped the legal, financial and commercial intricacies of the case, and worked tirelessly to create a constructive environment for dialogue.

Even in the face of entrenched positions, he maintained focus, empathy, and impartiality. Although a final agreement was not reached, Roger significantly narrowed the issues in dispute which will prove valuable as proceedings continue. We would not hesitate to recommend Roger for any commercial or shareholder conflict.
