Position

Amanda has maintained a full-time independent dispute resolution practice since 1991 and was accredited as a commercial mediator in 1996. She is one of the first career mediators to practise in the UK and she has a significant portfolio of mediated disputes across a range of industry sectors and legal contexts.

Her personal style is to focus on generating good decisions and she has an enviable record of accomplishment as a catalyst for reaching agreement between even the most ‘individual’ of individuals.

Parties frequently remark how much they appreciate the time and effort Amanda invests in helping the parties prepare for negotiation. She speaks with everyone before the mediation day so they are comfortable that they have someone who understands their goals and interests. This helps enormously with the use of time on the day. They also remark on her commercial flair, creative input and persistence in finding a resolution with a persuasive yet non-confrontational style.
