Find a Mediator the Easy Way:
Free, Fast & Trusted

Just contact us and we will identify and recommend a suitable mediator for you. Our service is free of charge, and we will respond promptly to all enquiries.

Mediator Locator is a free mediation appointment service, in partnership with prestigious law firms, where all our mediators are highly skilled legal professionals employed by our partners. Our mediators are specialists in their respective fields, and many are celebrated in legal directories as leading sector experts. With huge depth and experience from our mediators, you will be in safe hands when using our services.

This is a matter for the parties to decide, and at Mediator Locator we cater for both options. So, it is entirely your choice as to how you wish to conduct the mediation.

Currently, we partner with 11 highly respected full service law firms, and from those law firms we have 27 mediators. All our mediators are highly experienced professionals, most of whom are senior partners with very substantial legal and mediation experience.

We have expertise in all sectors, so will have a suitable experienced mediator to recommend to you. Those sectors include (but are not limited to) business, private client, commercial / civil, property, employment, construction, breach of contract, family and matrimonial, insurance, maritime, etc.

Once appointed, the mediator will liaise with the parties to schedule and manage the mediation process. On the day of the mediation, the mediator will assist the parties in better understanding the realities of their respective cases, will help guide the parties towards resolution, and they will manage the process of any settlement offers and counter offers.

Mediation is quicker, cheaper, easier, less stressful, generally less confrontational, it can preserve relationships, it is completely confidential and highly likely to result in settlement.

Yes. All our mediators are completely independent, and operate with total integrity. As their mediation activities are fully regulated, primarily by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority, you can be assured of the mediator’s propriety at all times.

Mediation is significantly cheaper than the alternative methods of dispute resolution and will save you substantial time and money. As a process it’s straightforward and highly effective, especially with the right mediator appointed. That is why Mediator Locator has carefully selected our mediators to ensure quality, experience and knowledge.

Mediator Locator recommends a mediator free of charge.

However, it is the responsibility of the parties to pay the mediator directly for their services.

Unless one party agrees to pay for the mediation, i.e., this can often occur in workplace situations, or with some large Landlords (e.g., Local Authorities or Housing Associations), the usual position is the parties share the cost equally. Consequently, by sharing the cost, mediation is an inexpensive option, especially compared to the alternatives.

At Mediator Locator we have two panels of mediators, a Primary Panel, for higher value more complex mediations, and a Set Value Panel for disputes up to £50k in value with fixed fees. With the Primary Panel, the cost depends on the nature of the dispute and which expert mediator is appropriate. However, rest assured that the cost will be competitive and significantly cheaper than other forms of dispute resolution.

Regrettably at present we are unable to provide any free mediations. However, we intend to keep this under review and hope to be able to offer some pro bono mediations in the future.
