Testimonials
I found that you grasped the facts at the outset and helped both parties towards the common ground upon which settlement terms were built. Without your assistance the parties would not have listened to the common sense which demanded settlement. You had a polite but firm manner and worked effectively in gleaning information to enable you to unlock the conflict. I would certainly use your services again.

The clients felt instantly relaxed in your company, and I think that a settlement would not have been possible but for your encouragement.
Jak Ward. Associate Solicitor. Smith Partnership Solicitors.
During the course of the mediation I was impressed by Stephen's practical and commercial approach to the dispute, which he steered towards a quick and sensible conclusion and achieved a result with which I was delighted. He made the process productive and painless and I would not hesitate to recommend his services.

Firstly I just wanted to thank you for handling the 'situation' in such a professional manner. You listened and made me feel at ease. During the meeting I felt that you gave us time to talk but also made sure that the focus of the meeting remained the focus - if you know what I mean. I praised your work to our chair of governors and said that I felt that you worked well for me. I know that work will never be the same but you made the thought of work seem possible. Thank you again.
Educational Professional. Workplace Mediation Party.
A very positive experience for my charitable organisation. Stephen's calm, organised approach enabled resolution of a very contentious matter with a minimum of stress. We appreciated his light touch backed up by a depth of knowledge and understanding of the litigious approach we wished to avoid. He was very good at helping parties explore alternative acceptable outcomes. Highly recommended.
Head of Governance. Mediation Party.
Impeccable and excellent service. Mr Wood put the parties at ease and was able to guide both sides to achieve a mutually agreeable settlement. I would definitely use Mr Wood again and would recommend him to others.
George Smith. Head of Litigation and Dispute Resolution. Franklins Solicitors.
From the start Stephen was highly professional, extremely pragmatic and kept the momentum up at all times. A pleasure to work with and would most definitely use Stephen's services again if I ever had to do so.
Managing Director. Mediation Party.
I have no hesitation in recommending Stephen Wood as a Mediator. We had a Landlord and Tenant Guarantor dispute. Rather than go to Court we decided to try mediation. From initial contact through to reaching a well mediated and final solution Stephen was professional, realistic and above all impartial. The ability to get to the nub of the matter and to explain exactly what could and probably would happen made the achievement of a fair and acceptable compromise very satisfactory.
