This will allow you to focus on running your business or making important life choices. We both advise you, and serve as your sounding board, to help you clarify your thinking and your options.

Our People.
Employment Law and HR Investigation specialists
Building and maintaining strong and long-lasting client relationships is at the heart of everything that we do at People Law. We are aware that this is a very easy thing to write on a webpage, but the only real measure of this statement that really matters is whether clients continue to value our insight and judgement over time, and over repeated instructions. We invest heavily in the education of our whole team because that directly equates to investing heavily in our client relationships.

Cost savingOngoing workplace conflict is hugely costly in so many ways. Management time; HR and legal involvement; plus the huge impact to the productivity of all of those involved.
-
SpeedResolution can often be achieved far more quickly than any other conflict resolution process (e.g. formal grievance processes and tribunal claims).
-
Control of the outcomeWith mediation, each party is involved in negotiating their own agreement. “Win Win” solutions can be safely explored and no resolution is ever “imposed”.
-
Maintaining working relationshipsA big part of the mediator’s role is to really help the people in dispute to properly “hear” each other. If the parties feel genuinely listened to, the prospects for the dispute to be amicably resolved, and for relationships to be salvaged, are greatly enhanced. There is at least then a chance of those involved continuing to work together effectively.
-
ConfidentialityEverything said in a mediation is confidential unless the parties specifically agree otherwise.
