Voluntary
Participation in mediation is voluntary. Any participant may withdraw at any stage.
Confidential
All discussions are confidential and conducted in private. This often matters where commercial reputation, ongoing work or supply-chain relationships are at stake.
Independent
The mediator is independent and neutral. They do not decide the dispute or impose an outcome.
