PARLÉ MEDIATION - THE MODERN AND COST-EFFECTIVE MEANS OF RESOLVING DISPUTES

Bringing together complex and entrenched beliefs on both sides of a commercial dispute is one of industry's oldest and most expensive challenges, especially in the construction arena.

From policy formation, investment decisions, contracts and delivery schedules to perception, interpretation and implementation of plans, materials, labour and client preferences, the industry is littered with the potential for costly and unsettled battles.

Today, mediation provides the logical, practical answer. By using experienced, highly skilled and independent mediators, warring parties can reach positive and viable agreements to end the conflict immediately - and move forward.

Settling construction disputes in a day - how?

Mediation can bring any dispute to a swift and early conclusion, avoiding the need for costly legal involvement, and keeping protracted stand-offs to a minimum, each of which hamper productivity and post-contract relationships.

Each mediation is usually conducted over an uninterrupted day, and aims to use the skills of the trained mediator to identify hot spots, aid communication, work through perceived intransigence and eliminate distraction to seek out an all-sided solution and bring the matter to a speedy close.
