Introducing Mediation in Business - turning differences into common ground

GWE Business West, in partnership with ADRGroup, has formed Mediation in Business (MiB). The new joint venture company draws upon GWE Business West’s links, relationships and understanding of business in the South West. And ADRGroup’s 21 year’s of pioneering work in the mediation field.

Mediation is now an accepted process recommended by the courts, codified through statutes (most recently the employment act of 2008/9) and supported by ACAS. It has been commonly used to solve international diplomatic and trade disputes, as well as complex domestic and business affairs.

Mediation gives businesses the chance to reach a confidential early settlement before they are committed to either escalating legal fees or uncapped tribunal exposure. It means that vital relationships can continue to work and that reputation can remain in tact.

Where MiB differs is that it focuses on you - the end user. We deal with the disputant direct (as well as their legal advisors). A direct route to resolution.

Full members of GWE Business West's Chambers of Commerce - the Bristol, Bath, Gloucestershire and S Glocs Chambers - are entitled to a 15% introductory discount on mediation services provided by MiB in its first six months of operating.
