It is an unfortunate truth that even with the best intentions, people sometimes cannot resolve disputes without the intervention of some form of mediation.  This is sometimes possible by informal mediation, which is available through a variety of different providers.  Sometimes this mediation of necessity must be imposed by the court system.

The court process is one which results in a judge imposing or forcing an outcome on the people involved.  The court process itself is well known to be costly, time consuming and emotionally draining for parties involved.  It is always suggested that a substantial effort be made to properly identify the issues at hand, and to resolve the issues without the need for recourse to the court system.

Resolution or settlement can be reached by direct discussion and negotiation, or a professional mediator can be engaged to assist the parties in reaching a resolution.  If however all efforts to achieve a fair resolution fail, St Marys Legal Practice t/as Thomas Adams Solicitors are able to provide professional and effective assistance in utilising the court system to achieve a fair resolution.

We combine a professional  and user friendly approach with a focus on facilitating whereever possible the out-of-court settlement of civil disputes.
